Hi everyone!

Here's a picture of a doll that I found today, as well as some clothes:




I already found out that some of the clothes belong to a 1970's doll Dinah-Mite, I have the complete Blazer Days outfit. (In the fleamarket there also were Dinah's male friend Don and I think a Dinah doll too, I'll check on that tomorrow, if they're still there.)

I'd like to ID the doll I found and that's pictured above. Is she an old Barbie doll or what? When was she made and what is she worth of? She is wearing that dress and a bright red swimming suit, I guess those clothes belong to her. Can you help me with the other clothes? Are they this doll's or someone elses? That Elvis-looking cloth almost made me laugh. ;D

Thanks for any information you can give!

Your doll is a vintage Barbie doll clone. (That's what Barbie collectors call fakies.)

As for the clothes, any vintage Barbie garments usually have a white with black letter Barbie tag.

Thanks for letting me know! Does anyone have any idea which series she belongs to? (Or if some of those clothes belong to her!)

I found out that a set of clothes belongs to Dinah-mite doll from the 70's and I found a Dinah-mite doll too - not sure if she's genuine though. Here are some more pictures:



Is anyone here a Dinah-mite expert? If so, please contact me since I have many questions about my Dinah-like doll! :D

I'd also love to find out more about the Barbie fakie.
