The doll is almost flawless. Has never been played with, or displayed. Have stayed in a Barbie case the whole time. The hair was retied once before the sale using a yellow thread. The hair is flocked and has absolutely no missing plugs, and all of them are original, the hair was only brushed once as well.
The doll almost looks like new. The makeup is beautiful, it is almost completely in tact, was never retouched. Also has original red paint on her hands and toes. Has slight discoloration on her neck (less visible in real life).Otherwise the body looks great. Has a proper mark, and holes in her feet. The feet have some staining from the shoes, but the nail polish looks perfect. The stand (marked Mattel), the shoes (marked Japan), the swimsuit, and the earrings are all original, and are in a mint condition.
She has very slight issues (can be seen on pictures). Has a tiny black mark on her temple, some of the makeup rubbed off just a bit (see pictures). She was stored in a vintage yellow 1959 underwear, but it has discolored that area (see pictures). She will also come with a reproduction box, and a Barbie (R) Booklet instead on Barbie TM. She is an extremely rare find, and her condition is almost perfect. She was lightly cleaned as well.
