Collector Barbie Appraisal

Barbie Snow White Collector Edition Doll

This item is a 'Barbie Snow White Collector Edition' doll, presented in its original, unopened packaging. The doll features the classic Snow White character with fair skin, dark hair, and red lips, indicative of the Disney princess. She is dressed in a traditional Snow White gown, characterized by a royal blue bodice with lacing detail in what appears to be pink or light purple, puff sleeves with red and blue segments, and a striking yellow skirt with a golden overlay. The golden overlay on the skirt is patterned with what seems to be a subtle, intricate design. A high white collar and a red cape are also visible, completing the iconic ensemble. The doll is housed within a clear plastic display box, allowing full visibility of the figure. The top of the box is golden with decorative scrollwork and clearly states 'Collector Edition'. The background insert inside the box depicts a pastoral scene with a thatched-roof cottage (presumably the dwarfs' cottage) and lush greenery. The bottom portion of the box features an illustrated forest scene with deer and rabbits, emphasizing the fairy tale setting. The front of the clear plastic displays 'Barbie' in a prominent blue script with 'Snow White' written below it, also in blue script. The overall condition appears to be excellent, consistent with an item that has remained sealed in its manufacturer's packaging, showing no visible signs of wear, damage, or repairs to the doll itself or its accessories. The box appears to be in good condition, although minor shelf wear is always possible with age. The doll likely dates from the late 20th century or early 21st century, given its 'Collector Edition' designation and general aesthetic. This item represents a collaboration between Mattel (Barbie manufacturer) and Disney, appealing to both doll collectors and Disney enthusiasts. The craftsmanship appears to be of standard Mattel quality for collector editions.
