RARE Vintage Francie Japanese Kimono Komon
As seen in the book, Barbie in Japan. Purchased several years ago from the author of Barbie in Japan, this is exactly like the kimono and the silver obi (which is shown on a different kimono)pictured in the book. Sorry, no matching purse.
You get everything pictured including the blond straight leg Francie doll. MINT condition kimono and obi.
Keiko, the author of Barbie in Japan, told us blue komon (casual kimono) are much more rare than red or pink. A VERY RARE item for the advanced collector.
