Vintage Barbie Original Picnic Basket from Outfit #967: 1959-61

Picnic Set #967 was one of the 1st outfits produced for Barbie in her release year, 1959.  It was in production until 1961.  This is a handcrafted woven basket with a little rope closure and handle.  It is a little smushed and the edge of the lid is a little frayed, however, really nice condition considering its age and scarcity.  Please see photos for details.
