Description: This 1997 Holiday Barbie Special Edition is one of the rare few that slipped through production before Mattel recalled it. Why was it recalled? Due to a Misprint. On the box for the 1997 Holiday Barbie Special Edition, the barbie on the back of the box had blue eyes printed on it, while the doll itself had green eyes. Mattel recalled the doll after realizing the mistake. This rare vintage Barbie doll from the Happy Holidays Barbie series is a must-have for any doll collector. With her beautiful green eyes and light complexion, she is sure to catch your eye. This special edition doll was manufactured in 1997 to celebrate the 10th Christmas, and is still in her original unopened packaging. She is dressed in a festive Christmas outfit and is part of the Happy Holidays Barbie product line. This Barbie doll is perfect for anyone looking to add a unique piece to their collection, and is suitable for all ages. This was purchased new in 1997 by an avid Barbie Collector. It has been stored indoors in our home, and kept out of sunlight in order to preserve it's original packaging and value. Another very important thing for any serious collector - it has never been removed from the box. In the last picture under the words - Special Edition - there is a small cut on the box, unsure when this happened, most likely it was done at the store before it was purchased. This is truly a one-of-a-kind find. Once purchased, this doll may not be returned. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out and I will happily answer any queries you may have.
