Website Update

Good Morning!

I wanted to let everyone know that MyVintageBarbies.com (the website) is up and running again! I had a few glitches this week and had to pull it down for a bit.

I love hearing how you all are using the site and appreciate the support you have shown by clicking through the affiliate links to help keep the site live.  

The incident that occurred on my website this week is the reason I wrote My Vintage Barbies (the reference book).  I wanted to preserve my hours of research in case the site had to be taken down, or the software became too outdated to maintain.  The book also contains information that is not found on the website.  Fortunately, for now all is well.  I hope to keep MyVintageBarbies.com running for many years to come.

I also wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their lovely messages and emails expressing how much you have enjoyed my book.  Thank you to everyone who has purchased it.

It's starting to feel like fall here in Oregon.  Enjoy the rest of your summer! 

Happy Hunting!

My Vintage Barbies (The Book)

After a year in the works, I’m excited to announce My Vintage Barbies is completed and for sale at Amazon!

This large 348-page reference book is sure to capture the interest of all Barbie enthusiasts. My Vintage Barbies covers the Barbie era in detail, from 1959 to 1979 and beyond. Although the book spotlights the vintage era, it includes unique and historically relevant dolls after 1979, including foreign, holiday, and current collectible dolls. Vintage clothing ensembles from 1959 to 1972 are also included for Barbie, her friends, and her family, as well as gift sets, furniture, structures, and scores of other vintage Barbie items. Readers will enjoy over three thousand (many never-before seen) color photographs, while discovering a few of the author’s personal favorites and other fun surprises along the way! Collectors will appreciate the descriptions about each doll, and the detail with which the author explains their variations and specifics. The book includes a table of contents with an extensive, organized, and detailed index, making it quick and easy to find a specific clothing ensemble, doll, or other item. This is a must have book for any Barbie collector, enthusiast, or fashionista, and will make a cherished gift for the Barbie aficionado!
