This year is the 50th anniversary of Barbie, and DesignBoom has an amazing behind-the-scenes gallery of the “adult” doll for little girls. The images are fascinating:
This is a Barbie face mold. A wee Mommie Dearest, no?
According to the copy, “the doll is sold in 150 countries, has represented more than 50 nationalities and ethnicities.” When I was a kid, though, I was pretty sure that the black one looked just like the white one, except, you know, brown.
