## Description

1988 Happy Holidays Barbie - 1st edition year

Review: mia moglie colleziona (tra le altre) questa serie di Barbie e per Natale ero riuscito a trovare la prima della serie, mi avevano garantito che sarebbe arrivata in tempo per i regali di Natale e addirittura è arrivata in anticipo rispetto alla data di consegna prevista. Imballo perfetto, sembra nuova considerando che ha 35 anni!
Review: I had all of the Holiday Barbie's except the 1988 --1st one though the hair bow was not as it should be I was able to fix it The Doll and Original Box actually came in Good Condition better than a couple that I purchased last year where the boxes were really in poor condition but instead of returning them I decided to keep them. I have the Complete Collection Now including The Newly Released 2019. I only pur them out at Christmas And I hope 1 day to pass them on to a daughter in law

My grandma never had a real Barbie growing up. She LOVES them a lot. She cried when she opened this beautiful doll and it’s now displayed in her favorite room- her sewing room. The seller was so very kind too! A lot of great memories were made!
