Expert Judith Miller left her shocked inititally by saying: “I have never, ever seen a Barbie doll in this condition.”

She replied: “What?”

Judith explained: “They were launched at the New York Toy Fair in 1959 and were an immediate success. Everyone wanted a Barbie doll.

“I think Mattel have sold over a billion Barbie dolls. They cost three dollars when they were first launched.



She was told her Barbie doll could be worth up to £1,500

“Do you think she’s very valuable

“I don’t know. I’ve heard people say it could be valuable if it’s an original. I know it’s in good condition.

“It’s not from the very beginning of production, it’s from the 60s. I think this would sell for between £1,200 and £1,500.

Lost entirely for words, the lady was stunned into silence before replying: “Wow. Well. It’s certainly something I wasn’t thinking about. It’s absolutely lovely.”
