Description: WOW! What a great set from 1965! I love these Sew-Free Fashion-Fun sets, where the kids were to cut out the fabric and stick it together with special Sew-Free strips that acted as fabric glue. In this case, someone, probably a collector, decided to sew the dress and purse together. It looks fantastic! They made one extra little cut in the vee-back of the dress (see pics), but overall, it's great. Please take a look at ALL of the photos and note the following details in addition to what I mentioned above:Box has lots of wear and tear, denting, creasing, writing on it, the works! Where it was torn at folds, I reinforced it with archival linen tape on the inside. When I tuck the Barbie form with the dress inside, it corrects the curving in of the back of the box, so that's an idea if you want to display the box, just put something inside it to keep is full. You may want to add some Fray-Chek around the edges of the fabric as it is prone to fraying, but for now, just trim off the stray threads as they appearShoes are Mattel reproduction and I think they're black, but could be navy - I'm having trouble seeing colors today apparently.Barbie is modeling, but isn't included here.My 86-year-old Mom made the shrinky dink "art" that Barbie is holding (we love doing these pieces together!). This special piece will be included for fun!Smoke-free home.Check out my other vintage Barbie and friends listings, too, as I'm happy to combine shipping whenever possible. Thanks!
