Some information about
Skipper Dolls - Skipper was
introduced by Mattel as Barbie's little sister in 1964. At the time of her
introduction, Skipper was meant to be a little girl about 10 years old. Later,
she became a young teenager. In the 1960s, Skipper was an alternative for Moms
who objected to Barbie's adult look and body. She was in nearly continuous
production until her retirement in 2003. Skipper was redesigned many times,
and had many different body styles as well. Many collectors consider the early
1960s Skipper dolls to be truly iconic and not matched by the later Skippers
in quality or styling. In 1964, Skipper was 9.25"
tall. Later versions which represented a young teenager were taller. Also,
Growing Up Skipper, produced in 1975, had two heights. With a rotation of
Skipper's arms, Skipper grew in height (and, more controversially, grew small
breasts). Skipper is generally made of soft vinyl for the head and harder vinyl for the body. The 30th Anniversary Skipper doll, produced only in 1964, was
made in porcelain. Mattel's original Skipper doll was a hit. Referred to by today's collectors as
"Straight Leg Skipper," she had long hair (blonde, brunette or redhead) and
bangs. Other notable 1960s Skippers include the next version of Skipper with
bendable legs, Twist and Turn Skipper and Malibu Skipper. Later versions of
Skipper included the notorious Growing Up Skipper and many, many young teen
versions in the 1970s through 1990s. The 30th Anniversary Skipper was done in
porcelain. In 2007, Mattel released the first reproduction 1960s Skipper,
presented in a Knitting Pretty Gift Set with a reproduction Swirl ponytail Barbie. Skipper was so popular that she had her own friends. Skipper's friends included Ricky, Skooter,
Ginger, Fluff and also her cousin Francie. |
