1995 Happy Holidays Barbie Doll

Cataloged under stock number 14124, this 1995 Happy Holidays Barbie doll is a Special Edition in the Holiday Barbie line, released as part of the annual Happy Holidays series for the collector segment. The series issued a new holiday-themed formal look each year, and the 1995 edition wears a green dress printed with holly, set off by a silvery Victorian-style collar, red rhinestone berry accents, and a poinsettia sash. The doll's accessories reinforce the theme, pairing a jeweled choker with a red poinsettia hair flower. Collectors know this release as the 1995 Happy Holidays Barbie or Happy Holidays 1995, and identify individual editions in the series by year and stock number. That identification matters here because the 1995 release exists in the catalog under two stock numbers, 14123 and 14124, with the same recorded dress and accessory set; the number on the packaging is what separates the two records. The doll carries a Special Edition designation rather than a numbered production run. No edition size, original retail price, hair color, or face sculpt is recorded for this entry, and no retailer exclusivity is noted. Like the rest of the Happy Holidays series, the 1995 doll is cataloged in the collector segment rather than as a playline release.

Collector notes

This is the second of two catalog entries for the 1995 Happy Holidays Barbie doll; stock numbers 14123 and 14124 record the same green holly-print dress, jeweled choker, and poinsettia hair flower. Use the stock number on the packaging to match a doll to the correct listing. As a Special Edition with no recorded edition size, the release is an annual series entry rather than a numbered limited edition, and no retailer exclusive status is recorded.
