Barbie has been in my Life since 1969. Born in Ludwigshafen, Germany & raised in Altrip and Speyer, Germany, I grew up on a Military Base where my Father Paul Shanley (a Native New Yorker of Irish Heritage), was a Major in the U.S. Army. My Mother Marianne Weber-Shanley was also German-born(in a small town named Mundenheim). My Husband Marty and I live in Ocean Township, right on the beautiful Jersey Shore. Marty is from Ocean and has lived here all of his Life. We share our Home with our Cat Patches, our Turtle Chevy, our Cockatiel DeeDee, our Parakeet Pauli and our Snake Sam. I wish to thank all my Customers for their continued trust and Business and would like to give back this joy Barbie, Friends and Family have brought to me for the last 41 years. My Doll Business started on ebay where I am still active as well as having this online shop. I will always strive to bring you the lowest prices possible as your Satisfaction is my Number One Goal! I have built a positive Reputation with repeat Customers in the USA as well as overseas. You can find my Ad in Doll Reader Magazine, in our local yellow pages, on yellow pages.com, and collectible detective.com . Will also see everyone at the Conventions. I thank my wonderful Parents for creating this awesome world for me so many years ago! Barbie has always been more than a toy to play with or a Collectible to enjoy. She is my Life! Always looking forward to hearing from you! Best Regards, Leslie Shanley-Minervini |
