Ken Doll, 1961
- Barbie Doll, 1959-1961 - Mattel's Barbie doll, introduced in 1959, was groundbreaking--a teenage fashion model, rather than a baby or companion doll. Barbie was a young adult, with long legs and an hourglass figure. She represented teenage freedom--and enjoyed a large, constantly-changing wardrobe of stylish clothing and coordinating accessories to go along with it. Barbie was an immediate--and lasting--hit with young girls.
