1963 Skipper® Head Mold
     
  This is how Skipper looked when she first appeared in 1963. A girl with blonde, titian or brown hair in a straight style and with bangs. Here eyes was looking to the right, just like her big sister and had the same blue color. No lashes other than a thin molded line above the eye that was painted black. The smile is closed and hardly noticeable.

She had straight hair, curly hair, bangs, no bangs and rooted eyelashes in some versions and got a straight forward look in her eyes and she had a tan. Skipper had this mold for many years after and in many variations but always blue-eyed. In Japan she could be found with black eyes.

 

  Growing Up Ginger is the first friend to have been used with the original Skipper mold. She was a brunette girl with brown eyes and grew up together with Skipper in 1976. They shared both head- and bodymolds.

Doll belongs to Rebecca Chulew.

 

  Katrina sent me a head shot of her wonderful redheaded Skooter so I can share her with you.

Funtime Skooter had the same mold as Funtime Skipper but with a nice shade of dark red hair instead of Skipper's blonde. Skooter had blue eyes.
