Vintage Skipper Doll Identification

I thought that this was Skipper, but cannot find a doll that looks quite like her. She is 9" tall and marked "Mattel, Inc. 1967" on her lower back, and has painted eyelashes, not rooted. Blue eyes, brown brows, and pink lips. She has the TNT waist I think. Thank you for any info!

Hi Carolyn -
She is definitely a Skipper. I think she must be a Malibu Skipper. Malibu Skipper was made from 1971 to 1977, so there would be many variations out there. I cannot find any other Skipper that even comes close.
Anyone else think anything differently?
