5.0 out of 5 stars it's all about the accessories

I'm so glad I found this book. As a long time, Barbie collector. I have many books about collecting Barbie. This book tops them all. I never realized how many accessories were made for Barbie. I found a few things that I didn't know existed. This is a great book if you want to see what went with all the fashions out 'Gal" has. Ruth Handler was a visionary when it came to creating all things, Barbie. This is a must have for any Barbie doll collector.

I am in the process of selling my vintage Barbie collection and I ordered this book because it looked like it might be useful. Oh my goodness, WHAT A GEM!! This is the most helpful book I have found to help with all of the little Barbie pieces that I could no longer place with their outfit. Not only does this amazing resource offer an idea of what each piece might be worth on the open market but it tells you which outfits it was packaged with when new. It is an invaluable resource for anyone looking to sell or value their collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent compendium
Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2020

This will be a fantastic help in sorting out Barbie accessories -- such as hats, jewelry, shoes, and purses and other bits and pieces -- to match to my incomplete outfits. Excellent color photographs show items clearly in close-up. Although socks are included, I am surprised that hosiery (pantyhose, tights, and sheer or patterned stockings) was not listed. That's a big omission in such a detail-oriented book. Still, this is a welcome addition to my reference library.

5.0 out of 5 stars Favorite accessories book yet
Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2019

First, the item arrived in brand new condition. Paperback but large, easy to see photos that are in color. Hundreds of vintage Barbie accessories shown for the 50, 60, and 70s. Best part is they show value and cross reference what outfit name and # the accessory goes with or comes from, which is important because one pair of shoes might match several outfits or fashion paks. Good book for identifying what you already have or locating what you might be missing from outfits or sets.

5.0 out of 5 stars Übersichtlich und mit guten Fotos
Reviewed in Germany on September 28, 2016
Verified Purchase
Schön übersichtlich, alle Accessoires sind nach Kategorien wie "Taschen", "Hüte", "Schuhe" und nach Puppen (Barbie, Ken, Francie, Skipper, Tutti und Todd) geordnet, so dass man sich gut zurecht findet.
Im Gegensatz zu anderen, auch sehr guten Reference-Büchern, sind alle Accessoires sehr deutlich und groß auf guten Fotos abgebildet und somit Details besser erkennbar.
Ein paar kleine Fehler haben sich eingeschlichen, z.B. fehlen einige Schuhfarben oder sind falsch zugeordnet, aber bei der Menge der gezeigten Artikel ist das wirklich nicht viel.
Die Preisangaben scheinen mir zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt meist realistisch zu sein, so was kann aber natürlich schnell überholt sein.
Für jeden Vintage- und Mod-Sammler, der Accessoires liebt (wer tut das nicht?) sehr zu empfehlen.
