Holiday Memories 1995 Barbie would be a nice addition to a vintage collector of Barbie. Clothing reflects era of 1910, she comes in the book type box with cover that you open up and see her behind plastic, so she is protected, unlike say the circus barbie that once the box is open to see her, she is forever exposed without anything protecting her from being touched or handled. This makes a big difference if barbies are exposed to the elements after being looked at. The book type box with slip tab closure also protects the plastic she is behind from being all scratched up resulting in deppreciation of the Barbie,but providing a perfect view of her. The only downsides I see would be personal tastes, like, I think the fur around the neck and cuffs of her white fitted coat would look better black than brown, and when viewing her for the 1st time in pics from ebay, it looks black, thats why I bought it thinking the fur and boots were black until I received her and found out otherwise. Other disappointing factor is that she looks like she doesn't have any hair with that type hat on her head, pics of hat on her head on the box differ greatly from original site of her and nothing you can do about it than unsealing the Barbie and try to rearrange her hat in some way. Overall very good, except for problem with hat not accurately described.Read full review
I love all things Victorian and this Barbie deserves to be one of my favorites. She is dressed in a red dress which is covered by a winter white brocade coat with faux fur trim to keep her warm. Of course her beautiful Barbie smile immediately gives you the feeling of joy. I placed her, along with her sister Hallmark Barbie Special Edition Victorian dolls in a lovely Christmas display. You see, I believe to get the most enjoyment out of your dolls you must take them out of their box, look at and touch them. That just happens to be my opinion. I am sure a lot of people would have a problem with removing them from their box, but to really enjoy them I believe it is necessary. I love Christmas time and enjoy creating unique winter settings. They made a beautiful display.
IMA Barbie doll lover and had always admired all Barbie dolls portraying past time periods. I love her ensemble depicting a Victorian era. The doll affordably priced and would make and easy resale product. I would have placed the boots on the doll instead of displaying them inside the package. This Barbie doll gives a sense of nostalgia and warm Christmas spirited feelings and would be an excellent choice as a Christmas gift, as well a gift of any seasons as a just because present.I bought it because it is a quality product and my cutomers will be assured that I am associated with fine quality products such as this Holiday Memrories Barbie Doll.THis
