    Description

    This vintage Barbie pool has a water slide, shower, flower box, and even comes with its original box.
    First the bad news: the basin part of the pool has a crack in the bottom (see 2nd photo), but I repaired it with bionic. It doesn't look perfect, but it *does* hold water. Also, this pool doesn't have all its original accessories, but it has a surprising amount considering its age and the fact that it has been played with, and as near as I can tell, everything "important" is in there. I think the original toy included plastic screws, which this doesn't have (I improv'ed to assemble it for photos), but you can probably use regular screws for this purpose.
    The good news: This is a piece of vintage greatness. It's clean and in good condition. Most impressive of all, the shower *works!* It even has its original shower curtain/curtain rings. Adorable.
    All parts are clean, although the shower tube has stains I couldn't remove.
