I had the original 1959 Barbie but she was stolen. My mom made amazing clothes for her. So I still have the clothes and have highlighted some of them over the years. But Babs, she is gone. Perhaps I will replace her. I just replaced my missing sterling silver charm bracelet as a Christmas present to myself.
