Vintage Barbie No. 1127 Julia Diahann Carroll Nurse with Original Box & CMO Outfit
Please consult our detailed images. For information regarding the condition of our items. 1127 Julia Diahann Carroll with original box and nurse outfit, and redressed in what I believe is a CMO outfit - Charles Mo Original. This lovely doll comes from the Charles Mo collection, and was acquired from his estate following his passing in 2019. For more information on Charles Mo, please scroll further down. This lovely doll appears to be near mint with no signs of having been played with.
The box was most likely opened by Charles Mo himself as it appears to be in great shape with all the original strings that kept the doll in place, as well as the stand and plastic wrapped catalog. The nurse outfit looks unused, and the hat is slightly darker than the clothes. The dress/outfit she's wearing is unmarked, so I'm assuming this may be a Charles Mo design, but I can't say for sure.
The Late Charles Mo was Curator of the Mint Museums' Fashion Collection & Longest Serving Director of Fine Arts Mr. Mo's accomplishments in the world of Fashion span more than his 30 years tenure in the museum world.
