 Item Condition (Specific)
|
|
Factory sealed. Typical hair oxidation change to red - as well as her being mute (the internal mechanism is driven by a rubber belt which deteriorates over time. Clearly, Mattel wasn't looking 45 years into the future! :) If you see these 'talking', we can almost gurantee it's a recent repair. Unopened box states: doll made in Mexico. Clothing made in Hong Kong. Printed in USA. |
