Brass Compact With Puff

This is one of the three ensembles made only in 1959 and is therefore very rare. It included a tiny brass compact - one of the “holy grails” of Vintage Barbie collecting. Only 3/8” in diameter, this highly sought treasure is engraved with the famous “B” on top. It is hinged and contains a mirror and a tiny pink puff.

Mattel issued a reproduction of this ensemble in the 1994 35th Anniversary Gift Set.
