Fashion Doll Friday: Mattel Pioneer Barbie 1994


Pioneer barbie 1994

Our Friday Girl this week is from “The 180”. She is Pioneer Barbie and I found her in one of the crates almost intact, she even has her shoes. I think she should have a basket of produce. I don’t know a great deal about this doll. She came out just before I really started buying new Barbie’s. I believe the series was called “Early American Stories”. She has the older twist waist body. For now, she has gone back into the crate but I think that she will most likely become a display shelf doll when I have space for that.

I was born in England in 1957 and lived there until our family came to Australia in 1966. I grew up in Adelaide, South Australia, where I met and married my husband, David. We came together over a mutual love of trains. Both of us worked for the railways for many years, his job was with Australian National Railways, while I spent 12 years working for the STA, later TransAdelaide the Adelaide city transit system. After leaving that job I worked in hospitality until 2008. We moved to Tasmania in 2002 to live in the beautiful Huon Valley. In 2015 David became ill and passed away in October of that year. I currently co-write two blogs on WordPress.com with my sister Naomi. Our doll blog "Dolls, Dolls, Dolls", and "Our Other Blog" which is about everything else but with a focus on photographs and places in Tasmania. In November 2019 I began a new life in the house that Naomi and I intend to make our retirement home at Sisters Beach in Tasmania's northwest. Currently we have five pets between us. Naomi's two dogs Toby and Teddy and cats, Tigerwoods and Panther and my cat Polly. My dog Cindy passed away aged 16 in April 2022.
