In one word...Wonderful! This book is unusual because of the way it is presented to the reader from the attractive cover alone...to the perfectly displayed dolls and her exquisite fashions. The vintage dolls are photographed very professionally without any doubt. I was impressed with the posing of the dolls as well...and that several ensembles had more than one photograph so the reader would truly be in awe of the beauty of them all! This is not a book about values of items, but more of showing how valuable and why they are so valuable, and so desired. I recommend this lovely book to all collectors of Barbie. I think this is the main reason Barbie was created...to wear the lovely fashions photographed in this wonderful book.
This book contains very large images of the vintage Barbie dolls in some of their most popular fashions. There are also a few photos of outfits that were only issued in Japan that I had not seen before. It's a welcome addition to my Barbie book collection.

With a renewed interest in Barbie since childhood, I decided to buy some of the old items I once owned and cherished via eBay. EBay's inventory of Barbie is awesome. So I began my search only to find I didn't know anything about the value of the 1959-1963 dolls and related items. Nor did I know anything about the newer reproductions, fakes, the varieties and so on. So, I needed to do some research. Therefore, I decided to buy Barbie Millicent Roberts to learn about Barbie as I have never known here -- none of this information was available to me as a child. I really enjoy the photos, resolution and colors. This book is a keeper!
I bought this book a few months ago becaue I love looking at pictures of Barbie and her fashions, especially the vintage fashions. These full page pictures are awesome, showing every detail in the couture quality of her fashions. This is one of my favorite Barbie books, and I will enjoy it for years to come. I would highly recommend it to any serious Barbie collector.
Beautiful picture coffee table book for the vintage Barbie Collector
