Looks like Midge and Bubble Cut Barbie. Not sure about the middle one. Great finds. I love vintage Barbies and many collectors do also.
I have to tell a very funny vintage Barbie story.
I used to do shows quite a bit as a seller. One time I had the Bubble Cut Barbie whole of course. A lady came up to my booth and offered me $100.00 for the head. I said, no where would I get another body. lol

Thx a lot, been trying to google them to find out "who" they are, what time period are they from? No, the middle one looks like the early 50's dolls Ive seen so far, and her body is made of another plastic than the two others, and her feet are totally different also. Iv'e also got two redhaired twin dolls, but I doubt they are as old as these two, Im guessing 70's. Or late 60's.

A thrift store find!

It a wool 1940s vest with great embroidery. The label is "Swiss Style" and it has the label of a British department store. I bought it in the US, so it's a multi-national vest!

I love it, fuzzylizzie! Do you have one of those puffy peasant type blouses to wear beneath it? ;)

The middle doll is not a Barbie. Looks like a knock off of a Bild Lilly.

Fuzzielizzie, that is one of the best finds that I have seen in a long time, I can't tell you how jealous I am as there just aren't words! ;)

Which department store is the on the label, I'm dying here!!!

If you ever decide that you are tired with it then promise you'll give me first refusal? lol
