Condition Report:
The vintage blonde TNT head is in good-to-great condition with lovely hair and face paint. The clothing items are in vintage, pre-owned condition with varying degrees of wear consistent with age, play, and decades of storage. Many pieces are in excellent structural shape with bright colors. As is common with local estate finds of this vintage, some pieces may have minor wrinkling, loose threads, small storage marks, or need minor snap/button adjustments. Please note that these items come from a home with a history of smoking and retain a lingering tobacco scent, so they may benefit from a routine airing out or light cleaning depending on your collection preferences.
The 1968 vinyl double case is intact with its original handle and latch mechanism, showing typical vintage shelf/play wear and light discoloration. The lot is being sold together as-is, exactly as pictured. Please inspect all high-resolution photos closely as they serve as the primary visual description.
Shipping & Handling:
- The clothing and TNT head will be securely bundled inside the case, and the 1968 case will be heavily bubble-wrapped and shipped in a sturdy box.
- Fast shipping with full electronic tracking and postal insurance included.
