This is a 2001 reproduction of the 1964 "Swirl Ponytail" Barbie. She is wearing a reproduction of the 1959 Barbie "Suburban Shopper" outfit.
This reproduction has darker eye and lip make-up than the original doll, but this uniqueness makes her one of the most beautiful reproductions. The dress and jewelry are very true to the originals and are of excellent quality. Also shown is an illustration of the "Suburban Shopper" outfit from the reproduction of the 1959 Barbie box.
The reproduction of the "Surban Shopper" outfit included this wonderfully detailed basket with fruit which is amazingly similar to the original. Also included was a white straw hat and a pink telephone which all came with the original outfit.
