Hello again! I've decided that after Barbie's, I'll go through dolls such as Fashion Queen and Miss Barbie, and then Barbie's friends and family. (Such as Midge, Skipper, Ken, etc.) If in 1967 while you were watching Saturday morning cartoons, you might have seen this commercial. This is one of my all-time favorite Barbie commercials, I mean, I can quote the entire thing! I love the TNT face mold, and I'll just say right now, I'd want a Go-Go Co-Co (A.K.A. Light Brown) hair colored one. Or maybe a redhead!! (I love red hair!) The Mattel Barbie Trade-In was a huge success, which some people say is because Maureen McCormick is the little girl in the commercial, and she was later Marcia Brady on a 1960s? TV show called "The Brady Bunch." I personally think it's because kids like new stuff, and because the new doll was at less then half price.
Here's a Sun-Kissed (Light Blond) Trade-In Barbie. The Trade-In Barbie comes with really everything the normal, full price ($3.00) Barbie came with, except the ankle stand. I think this post has been pretty long, so I'll talk more about these Mod Barbies next time (Hopefully Tuesday) and I'm dying to talk about the 1968 Talking Barbie, but we're still in 1967 =(. well, 'til Next Time! - JCole

Note: All Barbie dolls that were traded in were given to charity! Pretty cool, right?
I'm a boy - I like dolls. In fact, I LOVE them! You could say it's a hobby, I would say it's a lifestyle.
