This new edition of the encyclopedic reference on five decades of Breyer plastic molded horses has over 1800 color photos and detailed information on the horses, riders and animals released by the Breyer company. This edition has 240 new models released in 1996 and 1997 and updated suggested values for all the models 1950-1997. Much new information on many pre-1996 models is presented, including previously unknown pieces from earlier decades. This book covers every known model, production dates, model numbers, variations, and the true stories behind the horses. Breyer's other lines are pictured and described in equal detail as well. Breyer collectors refer to this book as the "Breyer Bible."

If you collect Breyers, you can't live without this book. It is the complete history of the Breyer Molding Company and their products. If you need the history of your model, this is the book! Nancy has done YEARS of research to complete this epic. Don't miss it!

Outstanding & Comprehensive Collectors' Guide,
By Sharon E. Cathcart "Why, yes, I am an author" (San Jose, CA United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE)
This review is from: Breyer Molds & Models: Horses, Riders, & Animals 1950-1997 (Hardcover)
"Molds & Models," known around my house as "the blue book," is an indispensable reference to the Breyer collector. Outstanding cross-references and notations on each mold and model make it easy to use. There is an extensive section on the history of Breyer Molding/Reeves International that makes for some fascinating reading as well. Photographs are clear and demonstrate changes in molds over the course of time. I would love to see an updated version, since this one stops at 1997. Along with Felicia Crowell's "Collectors' Guide," this book will help you enjoy and appreciate your Breyer collection even further. (I've been collecting Breyers since childhood.)
