Vintage Barbie MINIATURE Handcrafted Reference Book The World of Barbie by Manos

Description: Here is a handmade miniature depicting the vintage Barbie reference book, "The World of Barbie Dolls, An Illustrated Value Guide" by Paris and Susan Manos. It has a glossy photographic cover with several blank pages inside for bulk. It is in 1:6 scale which is perfect to use in your Barbie display/dioramas. We picked this up in the late 1990's along with a few other miniatures being listed, made by Rebecca's Miniatures for the Barbie Convention. More info about REBECCA'S MINIATURES: Rebecca's Miniatures were sold at the annual National Barbie Doll Collectors' Conventions from the early 1990's until the mid-2000's. Rebecca got a special license from Mattel to reproduce, in 1/6 scale, miniature vintage Barbie items such as cases, books, structures, dolls, outfits, paper dolls, playsets, etc. But, the catch was she could only sell them at each year's conventions. Every year, she'd introduce new handmade items for sale, as well as a few old favorites. Consequently, there were relatively few of each item made - probably no more than several dozen each. This has made them quite scarce. Most of these miniatures are 3-dimensional photographic reproductions that replicate the outside of a case or a structure or a book, but a few actually open up to reveal miniature pages or interiors.
