When Mattel unveiled the first Barbie doll at New York’s Toy Fair in 1959 as “Barbie the Teen-Age Fashion Model,” it took the world by storm. The upcoming Jewelers Vault & Luxury Estate Finds auction, presented by Whitley’s Auctioneers, will offer several collectible Barbie dolls. Featured is the 40th-anniversary collector’s edition of Barbie. The 1999 doll wears a black bodice with silver glitter, reminiscent of her original 1959 striped bathing suit. In her hand, she holds a bouquet of 40 pink roses.
Beyond collectibles, the sale will also feature jewelry, watches, and sculpture. A George Rodrigue poster for the Humane Society of Broward County, Florida is highlighted. Produced in 1999 for an animal benefit, this limited-edition poster is among the few hand-signed by the artist. The poster shows his signature Blue Dog motif. Also included is a Lalique glass figurine of a nude woman on her knees from the late 20th or early 21st century. Browse the full catalog for this auction and register to bid on Bidsquare.
