OMFG! LOL

I soooooo needed this! It is hilarious!! I cannot believe I am seeing this! "Guess what? Barbie Earl's friends are all called Ann! Ann Boleyn has a removeable head, Ann Cecil has a realistic crying effect and Ann Vavasour can do the CanCan."

LOL

From the link:

You'll never see a more lifelike Ken than Oxford-Barbie.

All your friends will be so impressed! Especially when you sit him down at his desk and reveal his secret! With Barbie Earl's quill in his hand, how could anyone ever doubt he wrote the plays? Oxford-Barbie is ready for everything! There's no limit to what you can claim he can do.

But be Careful!! Don't let him near any servant Barbies when you're not watching! Especially if Barbie Earl is carrying his rapier!

Barbie Earl loves everything Italian. You can buy lots of fabulous extras for him. There's a pasta machine, a 16c Juventus football strip and there's even a full scale gondola complete with Singing Gondolier Ken. Once again, be careful with the other Barbies (and Kens!). Oxford Barbie loves a walk on the wild side.

Barbie Earl looks just like the real 17th Earl of Oxford. We used a real 16c artist's template to get his features just right. Every stitch and button is a masterpiece of the miniaturist's art.

No one will ever mistake your Barbie Earl for a lower-class oik from Stratford-upon-Avon.

I suppose the point of a prank like this is to see how many people fall for it and click on the purchase buttons (like me) only to find there is no product.

Eric, you DID NOT click the link!  LOL Please say NO! LOL

It makes fun of B De Vere and Willy at the same time and is on a Strat site! So funny!

Did anyone look at the song:

Yes, I admit that I wanted to get a better look at the merch to see how tacky it was. For a few minutes I was convinced that it was both a propaganda exercise and a means of earning a few quid.

I kind of remember seeing it a few years ago, but with Barbie shaking up the world right now it took on another level of humor. 🙂

I just discovered this fun and enlightening read on the SirBacon website, Jerome Harner's "Why I am not an Oxfordian" from April 2001. It puts everything in a different perspective for me. https://sirbacon.org/harneroxford.htm.

It is one of our classics for sure!! We had such fun putting it up!! It has been passed around a bit as well. 🙂

Hi Christie and Rob,

Absolute classic. Everytime I recall it I just shake my head with laughter.🤣

I remember hearing about this photo a few weeks before I saw it! 🙂

This was online on April 25, 2001 and I was offline then so I didn't put it up. But Lawrence and I talked often so I heard of the photo when he took it and it is somewhere with synchronicity.
