Vintage Barbie Fashion #967 Picnic Set Near Mint Complete w/ fish & pole

Description

Up for sale is the early Mattel Barbie fashion #967 Picnic Set.  Complete with red/white checked body blouse, clam-digger length jeans, straw hat with frog and flower accents, woven picnic basket, cork wedgies with red insoles and woven white strap, and hard-to-find fish on a bamboo fishing pole. This is from my personal collection and I'm sure at some point I had it displayed on a doll, but for the last 20 years it has been carefully stored in a drawer and does not show signs of play. Overall I would say it is near mint - no stains, tears, odors or noticable damage; however there are a few things that might bother a very "minty" collector: the ends of the hat ribbons show a tiny bit of fray and the flower and frog adornments were factory glued somewhat sloppily (see photo). There are no cracks/breaks on the delicate fish and it will be packaged very carefully for safe shipping. All vintage originals - no repro pieces. See photos for details.
