Vintage Barbie Commercial - 1962-3?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Rarely seen commercial from the early 1960's of Barbie dolls, and her fashions. It actually shows a "designer" sketching the "Solo in the Spotlight" outfit from 1961. This commercial is from early 1962, guessing by the advertising of the Bubblecut Barbie.
DISCLAIMER - FOR ADULT COLLECTORS ONLY, NOT FOR KIDS!
Barbie Commercial from mid-1961. Showing off the *newly introduced Bubblecut Barbie* in her newest fashions!
Better quality
IK HEB EEN BARBIE VAN1962 MET STANDAART EN DOOS EN BOEKJE KOMPLEET WAT KRIJG IK DAAR VOOR WIL HEM VERKOPEN
Deadass we had zippers, earrings, fully sewn outfits and painted nails back then. Now you're lucky if a Barbie doesn't have a wonky eye!
And pixelated face!
@@chickpea *and cloths that don’t tear after 1 or 2 days if you’re lucky-*
I think we are starting to get that again since barbie extra has all that
@@rexbesong2157 *I hope what you say is true, Internet stranger*
@@rexbesong2157 what??? Barbie extra is garbage compared to this commercial
Now the clothes look so cheap and tacky! Everything Barbie had back then looked realistic ❤️
IKR? The Extra line is "extra dissapointing". At least it's a step in the right direction. It's not like they don't have the resources or the feedback.
@@NostaIgiaJunkie it looks too tacky imo I feel like the last time Mattel tried with barbies was in 2010/2011 I feel like everything after that went downhill
@@TheBest-ux9ke I agree 100% hun, the holiday barbie this year too? Looks like an aliexpress knock off gown. You'd think for a $40something doll it would be good quality. Thank God for MGA. Rainbow high is killing it except like 2 from the latest wave.
@@NostaIgiaJunkie you’re definitely not wrong about the 2020 holiday Barbie, also hate the fact that these new fashionistas don’t bend like befor like come on!!!
@@NostaIgiaJunkie Are you talking about the piss yellow coloured monstrosity? If yes, I wholeheartedly agree.
This is so relaxing to me for some reason.
3 dollars for a Barbie back then...i wish i can go back in time and buy dolls
That price would be equivalent to 20-30 dollars today
@@zgreen8652 that's the regular price for fashionista Barbie in Europe 😐
Same tho.
@@zgreen8652 actually it's equivalent to $500
@@soarixchannel5265 no it’s not lmao. With inflation it’s like 27 dollars.
The dolls back then look much more stylish than nowadays
Yes, because back then we had more pride in how we dressed and presented ourselves. I still look at old Family pictures in amazement and appreciation for how we were always well dressed even if we went over to play with a friend or have friends over to play with us. Oh Yeah, back then we were raised by Real Mother, or a Mother figure, at least I did.
Have you ever seen a bigger downgrade. We had working zippers, painted nails and etc. Mattel what did you do now most people think Barbie is a joke.
I think its more 50/50
Thank you for this bit of nostalgia! I'm a collector of the vintage Barbie doll fashions and accessories from the 60s - 70s, because of the high quality!
If u have vibtage barbie u can make videos youtube too,so all peaple can se ur collection barbie
Same Here. I was never able to pass beyond Malibu Barbie/Ken Even though most of the clothing were made by Best Buy, some are pretty decent still made with real fabric and metal snap closure.
The quality is so good and it was only three pounds
$3 in 1961 is the equivalent of $26 today,
@@SailorMoonFan92 still better prices then today u literally spend 40 dollars on a cheap plastic Barbie play set and a Barbie with a wokey eye and cheap clothes
@4Freedom4All yup all I collect now is vintage even if it is more pricey u pay for age and quality
@4Freedom4All me too I only buy things I love the vintage era clothing is the most beautiful for me maybe not the times they were made in but definitely the look
Personally I didn’t like barbies when I was young, because of how their cloths looked mainly, they seemed so cheap and tacky even 8 year old me knew there had to be something better! So after some research I found these and oh my god they’re beautiful, if barbies were like this today I’d love them to death, I now want to collect vintage barbies, the first Barbie I plan on getting is “red flare” the 60s may have not been a good time for the US but I still appreciate Barbie from that time because at least she actually looked like a famous fashion model and not like she shops at Walmart, wish or aliexpress lmafo, If they start making barbies like this again they’ll have my interest but for now Mattel has lost my support for Barbie.
Personally, I loved my era of barbie when I was young 1998-2003-4ish. That's the last era Mattel still gave a crap imo. What started my love for vintage barbie was the old Barbie Collector website. Like u I was amazed with the superior quality of the older dolls! Was a subscriber to Barbie Collector magazine at 6yrs old lmao!
@@NostaIgiaJunkie they lost my respect for Barbie after they stopped giving them bendable legs, (2014ish) now they’re just really boring :/ (Ruth the creator of Barbie) would be so disappointed in what she’s become lmao, now she just looks like one of those tiktok girls who thinks she’s ontop of fashion when she buys her clothes at Walmart XD I mean there’s nothing wrong with Walmart but it’s clothes can be., horrible and somewhat questionable lol
@@NostaIgiaJunkie *and I did end up getting the red flare :) lol*
@4Freedom4All *it is hard to tell the difference because they remade the repo version so well! :)*
@@StxrrDrugg I just got the final pieces (Hat and clutch) to my original red flare outfit. Another doll I got not long ago was wearing silken flame and it made me think of getting red flare because it’s how the repro paired it up in that box set but the dress and coat best I know were always separate sold.
Wow, how nostalgic is this!
Wish barbie was like this with clothes now
Yes Barbie now is like hm no comment 😅
Barbies are now over priced and poorly made dolls.
Youre better off to buy dolls from mga entertainment, they at least put high quality dolls for a good price. Rainbow high doll honestly have so much detail in them with amazing outfits that follows current fashion trends.
That's true, MGA cares about the quality. Sadly their dolls' proportions don't appeal to me at all - huge heads and tiny bodies make me disinterested. I wish there was a Barbie type doll with MGA quality.
@@norijean3279 apparently they're making one called Aria, and one of the doll's name is Barbara.. literally 💀
@@DoIIyMama LOL they obviously want to make Mattel furious 😂 I hope they make that doll happen though!
I've been looking at some new Barbies and even bought some and I can say the quality has been slowly going up again a bought the Extra 3 doll and I was impressed that she had a full outfit and articulation, earrings, hair clip, 3 necklaces, and even a ring so Ive been pretty impressed with them at this point and I hope they keep it up 🥰
@@rileypower5650 aah thats great to hear!! I would love to purchase one and the extra Barbies are quite cute and their outfits are so... extra
So I’d definitely be interested in giving one a go
The genuine Barbie every single Barbie comes with that
That's the quality Ruth Handler wanted for Barbie. When she was around, she made sure everything was top notch. Now she's rolling in her grave 😞
One of the rare appearances of the Mattel International logo.
Wow! So good quality! Loved it 😘
Interesting that they used a model, instead of having Charlotte Johnson in the ad. Maybe she wasn't available, or she didn't want to do it.
wow what a great rare commercial!!! i havent seen this one before! i was wondering, how do you find these commercials?
This was in some random compilation of a bunch of toys from the same era. I thought this deserved to be published by itself for us Barbie lovers. I had never seen it either!
@@NostaIgiaJunkie oh wow that is lovely!!! thank you for posting it! i have watched barbie commercials on youtube since i was a kid and never seen this one :) it was really nice to see it
@@NostaIgiaJunkie Same here. I appreciated the fact that it truly state the very reason why we love vintage. They are the Best Quality and what a Fashion Model would definitely wear. Nowadays Barbie is Busy trying to be ALL SHE CAN BE. How can she have the time to attend a "Fashion Luncheon", "Club Meeting". Back then, She was a "Fashion Editor", "Busy Gal" who commuted to work "Commuter Set" and enjoyed a drink with friends "After Five", Dinner with Ken "Silken Flame" and Dance the night away "Let's Dance". During the weekend she would get up early to go to the market "Suburban Shopper", "Busy Morning" then she would go out for lunch with friends "Lunch on The Terrace" and then go to an "Outdoor Art Show". Sunday she would prefer to drive to the countryside "Open Road". Do you get the picture? There is a coherency in the Narrative back then.
I think for a Barbie to cost $3 in 1963 was NUTZ😊
My grandma used to have this doll but she gave it to her sister when she grew up and I feel so bad for my grandma. I really wanna save up my money and try to get her the midge doll with the black and white swimsuit.
Thats so sweet! They make great reproductions! They're pricy, but def not as much as the real deal. Midge never came in a striped swimsuit, she had separates in solid colors. The ones from 2009 with the large pink box is the best looking ponytail. They make a cute midge giftset too!
Barbie ! 😍😍😍😍😍
i have seen some
My grandmother have this barbie
why does old barbie look better than new barbie-
Because new barbies look like tiktokers now.
@@RubyChocoCookieor libTARDS
@@RubyChocoCookie NAH-
And now the clothes are cheap and overpriced
THEY WERE 3.00 BUT NOW WERE PAYING 200 WT
$3 for a luxury barbie. Now it's $20 for a tacky barbie with neon clothes that look like they were randomly customized in the sims.
@4Freedom4All well I wouldn’t mind spending that for a Barbie of that quality!
@4Freedom4All *I’m actually pretty young and I’m a collector of vintage barbies but after finding out how much 3 dollars was back in the day, sweet pinesalts that’s expensive! But I get what you’re saying they were VERY expensive back then especially for working classes*
Spetacular
.|. Esta va para Mattel que está dejando en la ruina a una gran muñeca como lo fue Barbie
Ngl, if it wasn't for the quality I would have said 3 dollars were too much for a simple barbie doll
The only time Barbie quality decreased was in the 70s due to the oil crisis, and in the early 2010's. Feel bad for the younger gen that grew up with this new era of Barbie. My era of 98-2006 was amazing and the quality was ok but nowhere near as good as the 50s. But now? Don't get me started!
Born in the wrong generation 👁👄👁
When barbie clothes which was actually made with fabric and detailed dresses and outfits
Zipper that Works... That says a lot.

What?😮

"You can tell it's Mattel, its Well" YIKES!
fun fact actually really really sad fact: Mattel
It's says "You can tell it's Mattel, it's Swell."
@@blazinbratzy3592 can u just uhmm idk how to say it,stop (no hate)
One day we will look at monster high commercials like this
im from the future. Just a heads up, Barbie costs triple and no longer as immaculate as what u see here in this old video. Their fashion is boring, clothes snap with velcro.
*Oh no! Take me back with youu! Or bring me some dolls back!* Lol!
Now barbie is so cheaply made..
Why is it black and Grey??? It’s a good quality but why is it white and grey?
Because color Television wasn't common til the mid 60's. Most everything was filmed in black and white up until January 1967. This was from 1961 or so...
