Publicity Tour


Part of the Hollywood Movie Star Collection, this Publicity Tour Barbie's details are a collector's delight. Her auburn-brown hair is curled and perfected coiffed under her vibrant two-tone coral silk scarf which is secured with a gold leaf jewelled brooch. The scarf is long and one end is trimmed with faux mink.  Her black velvet hat appears rather odd when photographed, but is dramatic when displayed. Her blue eyes have a far away look, and her plum coloured lips are full.



Barbie wears a classic houndstooth check jacket with brass buttons down the front with coral trimmed cuffs; and her pleated pencil skirt creates a feminine silhouette. Barbie wears white gloves, carries a brown crocodile skin bag with gold handles and sunglasses. She wears hosiery and a pair of two toned ankle length buckle high heels. The official Mattel photos shows a doll wearing a beaded bracelet which was not included with my doll.
