Barbie
Dolls have been one of the most collectible toys in history. Barbie comes in
many themes including the always popular, Holiday , Pop culture and Silkstone
Fashion & Designer Dolls.
Surprising skeptical toy critics at New York's Toy Fair in 1959. With her
good looks, charm, and charisma, she won audiences over in record time.
Soon, little girls across America, and later, the world, were singing her
praises. In the coming years, both adults
and children would collect her in record numbers. Today she remains one of
the hottest selling toys in the world.
Ruth Handler, co-founder of Mattel Toys, was watching her
daughter Barbara play with paper dolls and imagine them in grown-up roles
when the idea hit her - why not make a teenage doll that little girls could
play and dream about the future with? She then
resolved to create such a doll through her own company, which she co-founded
with her
husband Elliott Handler.
Ruth and Elliott unveiled Barbie® doll, the teenage
fashion model, at New York's annual
Toy Fair in 1959. Initially, toy buyers were skeptical. Never before had
anyone seen a doll so small, yet so sophisticated. As a teenager, Barbie was
completely unlike any of the
baby or toddler dolls popular at the time.
In the early 1970s, Barbie became more poseable than ever before, with
bendable wrists, elbows, and ankles. This allowed Barbie to participate in
all kinds of new activities,
including gymnastics, horseback riding, and ballet. And like the previous
decade, Barbie embodied the fashion and lifestyle trends of the world around
her.
