1960s Dolls and Clothes - Sindy, Patch
| £25 | 1963 Sindy Doll with Weekenders Outfit
click for image of back of doll click for close up image of face First edition Sindy doll by Pedigree from 1963. Sindy was introduced as a rival to Barbie in the UK. This doll has a large soft rubber head with a hollow body and legs, soft rubber arms. Her auburn hair is styled in a messy type bob. Back of head marked Made in England. Outfit is called Weekenders and consists of blue, white and red stripy top, denim jeans and white lace-up sneakers. This doll has obviously been played with - her legs are a bit loose (they swing easily), and she has part of two fingers missing. She comes with her original Weekenders outfit - jeans and sneakers are in very good condition, although jeans need replacement snap fastener. Top is split at one side seam, and needs replacement snap fastener. Sindy is approximately 11.5" (29cm) tall, and comes complete with original stand. |
|
| £10 | 1964 Sindy Sweet Swimmer Outfit
"Sweet Swimmer" from 1964 comprises a blue swimsuit with white trim (which could also double up as a leotard), and white plastic sandals. This is a genuine Sindy outfit. One side seam of the swimsuit needs a couple of stitches, otherwise in excellent condition. |
|
| £8 | Sindy Red/White Checked Top
Red and white checked cotton blouse/jacket in excellent condition. This is a genuine Sindy outfit from the early to mid 1960s.
|
|
| £8 | Sindy Leather Looker Skirt
The skirt is in orangey-red leatherette, with shoulder straps. It has slight ink marks on the back, which I haven't tried to remove. This skirt doesn't have a label, but I believe it's the Sindy "Leather Looker" skirt from 1963
|
|
| £10 | Sindy 1960s Duffle Coat
Winter is here, so keep Sindy cosy in this cute little tan duffle coat. One toggle is missing from the front, but it could easily be replaced by one of the identical sleeve toggles. Apart from the missing toggle, the coat is in excellent condition. |
|
| £5 | Patch Shoes
2 pairs of white plastic shoes to fit Patch. Shoe measures approximately 1" in length (2.5cm) |
|
| £5 | Typewriter and Tape Recorder
I think these are Sindy accessories, as they were with a collection of Sindy dolls and clothes. Typewriter measures approximately 1.25" x 1.25" (3cm x 3cm) and tape recorder approximately 1" x 0.75" (2.5cm x 2cm) |
|
| £10 | 1960s Coat, Dress, and Pinafore
Dating from the 1960s, these outfits are home-made, but look as though they are from a ready-to-sew kit. Suitable for Sindy, Barbie, Tressy, etc. Blue, pink and yellow shift dress has a matching loose fitting coat. Also included is a pinafore-style dress with daisy pattern. This is open at the back, with a stud fastener at the top. Or could be worn open at the front, as a sleeveless coat. |

| £10 | 1963 Sindy Summery Days Dress
Short-sleeved checked cotton dress for Sindy doll. This dress doesn't have a label/tag, but it is undoubtedly the Summery Days dress issued in 1963. Fastens at back with two snap fasteners. One side seam is split (about 0.5") and needs restitched. Dress is otherwise in excellent condition. |

An unusual item for the Sindy doll collector. |
