Skipper was super cozy in her flannel robe and polka dot pajamas when she stayed up late to chat with friends on the phone!This
Dreamtime outfit is in Excellent and Complete condition
and includes her pink flannel robe, cotton polka dot pajamas, pink slippers with fringe, blue princess phone, a blue stuffed cat, brass alarm clock, and original paper phone directory.
The alarm clock is shown in photo #4, I forgot to include it in the main pic.
I'm grading this outfit as Excellent condition because of some subtle age spotting on the pajama bottoms, the knotted cord on the phone, and a 1" tear in the paper phone directory. In spite of these small flaws, the outfit should display beautifully. If you have a bedroom scene in your vintage doll display, this will look so cute on your vintage Skipper:) I don't rate anything as "Mint" unless I've just taken it out of the original packaging. I've collected vintage Barbie for 30+ years, and I scrutinize items I sell on eBay. If you have a question that I haven't answered in my description, please ask me:). You may want to save me as a seller, as I am selling a large vintage Barbie collection on eBay.
The pink flannel robe is in quite nice condition; the cat design is sharp on the pocket, and the pink ribbon ties are in nice shape. The robe looks pretty clean overall; I do notice that the elastic is relaxing at the robe's sleeve ends. The elastic has a little stretch left, but it is drying out. The cotton PJ top looks quite clean and has its 2 buttons and snap closure at the back. The PJ bottoms waist elastic still has good stretch. I notice some yellowing and age spotting on one outside of one pants leg, see pic #2. The outside of the other leg looks good. The robe will cover down to Skipper's knees, so part of the spotting will be covered on display. The pink slippers look great with bright pink felt and lots of pink fringe. The stuffed kitty is quite cute; he's clean and has all of his features. The blue princess phone is in good shape; it doesn't have any melt marks, and still has the plastic dial. The phone cord has been knotted in the middle; if you trim the knot it would be less noticeable on display. I forgot to include the alarm clock in the main pics, see pic #4. The brass alarm clock looks good, the brass has darkened somewhat, but is still has its bell and legs. The paper original Phone Directory has a 1" vertical tear in it. It doesn't look too obvious. I have left the tear as is, but you may want to scotch tape the back of it.
Skipper will look adorable in Dreamtime! Please see my other auctions for a vintage Skipper doll Lot, other Skipper outfits, vintage Barbie doll and clothing lots, and other vintage toys from the '50s-'70s. I'm happy to combine shipping charges for multiple purchases:)
