Vintage Wednesday - 1964 Miss Barbie doll

I actually talked about this doll HERE, but didn't really mentioned much about the doll, but the  lawn swing that came with it, so i would like to "touch" the doll.
Miss Barbie doll was the first Barbie doll with bendable legs and the only one with "sleep eyes", I personally think is beautiful. As you can see she had blue eyes and a kind of a bold head - painted hair - that way you could use wigs easily, but not good to leave on as it could leave marks on the doll if left for a long period of time, well if you think, i don't know if this happened with you, girls, but some of my dolls got bad because the hair kind of "melted", i can't explain, maybe it was the type of material used back then, so the doll's skin would have a stain on it.

I may be wrong, but I think Mattel also made outfits for this doll, so you could buy separately. I like it, she's one of the vintages that i would like to have it.
