There are many 1973 Barbie paper doll sets

Whitman's Magic paper dolls do not come with clothing with tabs.  You rub the clothing against something and they are supposed to stay on the doll via static electricity.  I guess the "rubbing" must stop working after a while, because I cannot get the clothes to stay on the 1973 #4302/7209 Barbie Magic Paper Doll.

This doll's clothes are again a combination of 1973 Mattel Best Buys and Whitman's own designs.  Some of the Mattel outfits are variations of the actual clothing.

Although not identified as such,
the doll pictured is Quick Curl Barbie.
 
The two dresses on the left are actual Mattel outfits.
The others are color variations of them.

Here are three examples of Whitman clothing designs
for the Barbie Magic paper doll.
