Each sold separately

Somehow I missed the fact that Barbie turned 50 earlier this year, even though there’s been a slideshow of her fashionable half-century plastered alongside my posts on Fast Company for at least a month. I’m surprised, though, that none of the stories mention one of the rarest and most sought-after Barbie products: Bedspread Barbie and Pillowcase Skipper. These limited edition dolls were apparently in production for only one day in 1987.

    My favorite part is when you hit that high note, Alissa! And what is up with my shirt all tied up? I look SO cool!

    Beth, I'm sure you knew because we probably had you tied up in the closet so you wouldn't disturb the production.

    Unfortunately, pillowcase skipper, these dolls are very rare. But as you will note, accessories are included.

    Hey! I never said you guys could play in my room!!!

    There very well may be. Or of us appearing as barnyard creatures in Animal Farm.
  • I cannot take this one! I am crying laughing. Ohmygod, seriously. Please tell me (or, actually don't) that there's video of us singing The Little Mermaid?
