Christie's in London featured dolls from the entire life span of Barbie from 1959 - 2002. The auction started with the #1 Ponytail Barbie that sold for over $5400, (800 - 1200 British pounds pre-auction estimate). The Barbies are from the collection of Ietje Raebel and daughter Marina.

From Christie's:
"The auction will take Barbie fans and fashionistas alike on a fascinating journey from the very first Barbie, to limited editions, designer Barbies and Holiday Barbies. Naturally, the sale will also include Barbie's ever present boyfriend Ken."
