1980's Vintage Arco Mattel Barbie BBQ Picnic Party Fireplace and spatula

This wonderful 1980's Barbie Arco plastic fireplace and spatula were originally sold as part of a BBQ Party set, which would have included a picnic table, umbrella, dishes and lounge chairs. (Which are NOT included) But who is Arco?

"Arco is an acronym for A. Rosenberg Company, a Hong Kong based production company started around 1967. Mattel acquired them in 1986 and they became a major subsidiary brand producing various dolls and toys including Polly Pocket, Other World and budget priced Barbie and Disney lines throughout the 1990s. Some of the Barbie playsets they made were office furniture, kitchen and living room furniture, beach, camping, hobby gear and much more."

The only flaws I could find were a few minor scrapes on the back cardboard (see photo) and some rough spots on the fireplace picture. (see photo). The side shelf slides out and the grill come off for easy storage.

The fireplace 11-inches high and 5-3/4-inches wide at its widest point and comes from a smoke free home.
