Description: Vintage Barbie 1967-1969 Standard Straight Leg #1190 – Light Brown/Brunette Hair – Mattel Japan This exquisite vintage Barbie is a stunning example of the classic Standard Straight Leg Barbie produced between 1967 and 1969. Known for her elegant features, this doll showcases the beloved "Twist 'n Turn" face mold, but with a distinct twist—painted eyelashes rather than rooted ones. Her blue eyes and soft pink lips exude the timeless beauty that made this Barbie an icon of her era. Doll Details:Face: The doll features the classic TNT head with painted eyelashes, blue eyes, and deep pink blush and lips. Her light brown/brunette hair is styled to perfection, capturing the essence of late 60s fashion.Body: This doll has the Standard Straight Leg body, a "non-TNT" body style that offers the iconic straight-leg pose. Unlike the Twist 'n Turn Barbie, this version does not twist at the waist or have bendable legs, emphasizing the elegance of simplicity. Markings on her body read: "Midge T.M. ©1962 Barbie® ©1958 by Mattel, Inc. Patented"—a mark of her authenticity.Outfit: She comes dressed in her original 2-piece pink and red bikini swimsuit, which features a white plastic flower on the bottoms. This outfit perfectly encapsulates the bold and colorful fashion trends of the late 60s and adds to her display appeal.Condition: This doll is in excellent condition, looking almost new. Her face paint is vibrant, with no signs of fading, and her hair is full and styled beautifully. The body is free of any marks or discolorations, and all limbs are secure and firm, making her an exceptional piece for collectors seeking pristine quality. Why This Doll? This Standard Straight Leg Barbie was considered the "budget" version of the Twist 'n Turn Barbie, offering the same beautiful face but at a more affordable price. Despite this, she did not compromise on style or elegance, making her a cherished addition to any Barbie collection. Her distinctive painted eyelashes, vibrant face paint, and excellent overall condition make this doll a rare find. Historical Significance: Released from 1967 to 1971, the Standard Straight Leg Barbie featured the new TNT face mold but retained the original straight-leg body. This combination of features makes her a unique representation of the transition in Barbie's design during the late 60s. Her variety of hair colors and styles catered to the fashion trends of the time, and she was often seen in vibrant and stylish outfits like this 2-piece bikini that embodied the Mod era. Owning this doll is like holding a piece of Barbie history that highlights a period of innovation and changing aesthetics.
