My suspicions were right. It is Igeana's collection. It's a shame that she's getting out of collecting but she passes on a wonderful legacy to the rest of us.




Sandi Holder’s Doll Attic Proudly Announces we will be representing the sale of the Exclusive Vintage Barbie Collection of Igeana Gober. I am honored to share with all of you this announcement and that I will have exclusive representation to all of you the extraordinary vintage Barbie collection curated by long-time collector Igeana Gober.

Igeana’s collection stands among the most beautiful and historically significant assemblages in Barbie history. Built over decades with care and passion, her collection reflects an unmatched eye for rarity, condition, and her love for Japanese exclusive dolls and fashions, along with her passion to collect the US fashions, especially the variations. You will be amazed at her collection of Mattel Prototypes and Samples. Many pieces in this collection, have been sourced from the earliest years of Barbie’s legacy, showcasing fashions, dolls, store displays, samples never made and an amazing collection of licensed products coveted by collectors worldwide. Sandi Holder’s Doll Attic is proud to bring this landmark collection to market. Each piece will be presented with the respect and detail it deserves, giving collectors a rare opportunity to acquire items from one of the most admired private collections ever assembled.

I understand many in the community are familiar with this remarkable collection. Please note that no items will be sold privately or outright. All items will be available only through Sandi Holder’s Doll Attic.
