Mattel's # 969 SUBURBAN SHOPPER
From 1959 to 1964 this outfit on Barbie found her at the local Farmers Market.
A large brim cartwheel straw hat with blue ribbon
Straw tote bag (two varations of the weave)
A blue and white striped cotton sundress of woven design with back zipper
(Alot of them are out there since the repo came out in 2001 - prices vary as well as condition)
(Becareful - lots of repo out there, but not like this one,
also the '59 - '64 one with a very good ribbon is a real find)

A simple pair of white open toe pumps
(The first pair (1959) had holes in bottom, to fit the stand (hard to find) - after no holes)
A single pearl drop chain necklace
(Hard time find)

Pink telephone with plastic dial (earlier set had a metal looking dial - hard to find)

(We think this is the very first one - hard to find in this weave)

This tote with fruit was used again later for other issues but with flowers
(A good find with fruit if the handles are still good)
