Over 150 new dolls have been added to this volume, bringing the total number of dolls and fashions featured in this book to over 1,000. This up-to-the-minute book includes such recent releases as the Barbie 2007 annual doll, the 2007 Hollywood Silkstone Barbie collection, and the 2007 Wizard of Oz Barbie collection. The Holiday Barbie series is shown in its entirety, including the latest editions designed by the legendary Bob Mackie. Some of the other favorite series shown in their entirety include the Dolls of the World Collection, the Barbie Fashion Model Collection, the Hollywood Legends Collection, the Porcelain Barbie Collection, and every national Barbie Collectors' Convention set since the first in 1980. All Platinum Label Barbie dolls (dolls produced in quantities of less than 1,000 dolls worldwide) are found in this book, along with a large selection of priceless one-of-a-kind Barbie dolls produced for charity functions. A helpful index allows readers to research dolls by name or series. 2008 values.

 A must have for Barbie collectors June 21, 2010
Fred de Strasbourg (France)
This is one of the reference guide for any Barbie collectors. This book identifies and values all Barbie collectors editions. You have at least 2 pictures for each doll (among them one close-up) which is very helpful. Chapter "one of a kind" is incredible (dolls reach unbelievable amounts).
 Not just for Collectors February 24, 2010
Cleo (USA)
I had misgivings about ordering this book because for me, Barbie dolls should be playable. However, I learned from this book that many of the dolls I consider to be pretty enough to be enjoyable and therefore worth buying are labeled "Collector" by Mattel. Thankfully, these dolls are often available for $20 or less from many vendors. I also learned from this book that many of the dolls that I find unattractive and are often included in playsets are Generation Girl Barbies. This book helped me to understand my choices. I recommend it to anyone who plans to buy Barbies for their children. In contrast to this book, check out the Foreign Barbies book by the same author that describes not only dolls exclusive to overseas markets but many playline dolls sold in the US. The playline dolls just aren't as nice as the "Collector" dolls and it's not about price point. After perusing the Foreign Barbies book, I no longer wished for an Encyclopedia of Playline Barbies.

My daughter saw this book at Pottery Barn Kids and asked Santa for it. I found it for a better price on Amazon. Book arrived in perfect condition and she loves it.

I needed a book that would give me the values of my Barbie collection - this book was the most complete of all that I looked at.

I was actually looking for a book that showed all the Barbie's ever made. This book doesn't cover that.
