This week's vintage haul

Posted by Kathy M. in CO on 4/30/2025, 8:21 am

It was funny, I was having Barbie vibes on Friday when I set out to shop with Deb, but they held off till Saturday. LOL Was at a yard sale where they had a fill a flat for $5.00. I got some Christmas ornaments and an old cookbook, took a peek in the World of Barbie case and stacked it on. They gave me all of it for $5! It included the two ponytails, the clones, and three sets of Montgomery Ward fashions. Two of the sets are complete and unopened clone fashion Probably from the late 70's. There was some Jane West stuff too. I can recoup my investment on that alone! LOL. The Sunshine Family Steffie and the Malibu Skipper came from another sale where we made a big old pile for $20. Got some other really cool non doll stuff there. The dolls were mostly an afterthought. Whoo Hoo, doing the happy Barbie Dance. Got some work on the Ponys, but I think they will clean up.

Greasy faces, but seems like the hair is all there.

Never seen these, but Wards was famous for doing Barbie mixes, and I am sure they switched to clone stuff later.

Steffie stole Skipper's clothes I think! Bad girl

And another stupid case. When you buy collections you always get a case or two. Last year I think I sold 15 or so at a yard sale. At least I got 5 to 10 each on them, and folks went away thinking they got a steal. If they only knew! LOL
