Mattel vintage Barbie and Friends: 1966 Trademarks and Dates

The main marking for Mattel's Barbie & friends are located on the dolls buttock (modern dolls the mark is now on the lower back, at the waist).  There are additional numbers on the inside arms, inside thighs and the back of the heads, on the neck, these were probably part numbers used to assemble the dolls and do not have any importance for identifying the doll or year it was on the market.

 

We have counted sixty (60) dolls that have a date of 1966 in their marking and were on the market from 1967 to 1976. There are many more Barbie's on the market in the 1980s to present that have 1966 in their marking.
