4 out of 5 stars 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).


5 out of 5 stars 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.
