Cases 1965 to 1969 part two



I didn't realize how many late 60s cases I had until I started photographing them.  This isn't even all of them, just the ones for which I have matching dolls and outfits.




1967 (dated 1965) (#1004)
Trunks from 1967 and 1969
Interior of the 1969 three-doll trunk
Barbie & Francie Doll Trunk

  • 1966 blonde Bend Leg Francie in #1778 Bloom Bursts from 1967
  • 1966 blonde Bend Leg Barbie in #1775 Stripes Away from 1967


1969 (dated 1968) #5036
Barbie, Stacey & Francie Doll Trunk
Made by Mattel
  • 1968 blonde Twist N Turn Barbie in #1804 Knit Hit from 1968
  • 1968 white Talking Stacey in #1209 Mini Chex from 1968 (this is a Francie outfit)
  • 1968 blonde Twist N Turn Francie in #1207 Floating In from 1968

The interior of the triple doll trunk is very attractive.  The screen print on the blue trunk is backwards.  Note that the buttons on Mini Chex are on the right rather than the left waist.  And doesn’t Francie’s arm holding the balloons look freakishly long?

My dolls are the 1968 blonde Twist N Turn Francie in Floating In, the 1968 blonde Twist N Turn Casey in Mini Chex and the 1967 blonde Twist N Turn Barbie in Knit Hit.
