This is a Barbie that says 1966 on it. She has some smearing around the lips and on her back she has a button that clicks when you press it. She has a stitch at her head (I assume it is supposed to be there).

Does anybody know who she is? She has a cracked neck ~ so I don't know if she will be of interest to a collector......

I'm 99% sure that's a newer Barbie, (i.e. painted on lashes) even if it is marked 1966. You can learn more about the confusing dating by Mattel here:

Good luck.

I think Matel uses the original body with the patient on it but puts a newer head on.

It's Kissing Barbie. She's from about 1982. At least her body is, I cant see the head very well. It's not worth much if it's torn up the neck like it appears to be.

Most all Barbies are dated 1966 on the back.

I wouldnt describe anything that Is not still in it orginal package unopened or unused as vintage.

Even vintage wine is a bottle of wine that has aged un touched and untasted since it was bottled.
