Barbie Tennis Anyone? Tennis Shoes

Do you know if the tennis shoes in Barbie Tennis Anyone should have a Japan on the bottom of one or Korea? I have a pair of tennis shoes that have Korea on the bottom and I think they should Japan on the bottom if they go with the tennis anyone outfit. Thanks for you help.


Hi Shawn -

The Tennis Anyone shoes should be marked Japan. Barbie items were made in Korea from 1973 to 1978 - Tennis Anyone? was made from 1962 - 1964 - all Barbie items were made in Japan through 1968, and some were made in Japan from 1969 to 1972.
