Paperwork: The Original Brochure & Booklets











Even harder to find, this color toy brochure features the 1978 house and furniture line. The brochure (dated 1982) i have folds down, not sideways like this photo on the left. Barbie lounges in her blue denim pantsuit. Jaime Summers would be jealous.

  3. Can you post pictures of all the pages of all the brochures? I'm rehabbing my old dream house. I'm not sure if I have all the old pieces of my fridge, dishes, forks spoons, etc. I've bought some incomplete dream houses and bags of barbie "stuff" at garage sales and want to pick from those to complete my old set.

    1. Did you ever get a reply? I am doing the same thing right now myself. I swore I had the manual too and now cannot find it.

    2. Hi, Sorry for the late reply. I think the best inventory source would be from the instructions, mine are currently in storage, so I would either google it or purchase vintage ones on ebay. If I think of it after I clean out my storage (soon hopefully) then I will post scans of them. Great suggestion!

  4. I have googled and cannot find the manual for this particular dreamhouse anywhere. I hope you do find the manual. I'm going to just wing it for now and hope it goes smoothly. Thank you for the reply.
