Title: When did Breyer start putting a silver logo on their horses?
Post by: NigheanRuadh on July 31, 2016, 03:00:16 PM: I'm not really a collector, although I acquired a handful of models when I was a child. More recently, I've found a couple at a thrift store. One of those was today. I recognized him as a Breyer (just by overall quality) before I even picked him up to check inside the leg. When I tuned him over, I found this:

I haven't seen this before and was wondering when they started marking models this way.

Here's the horse, by the way. He's nothing special and pretty worn, but I got him, anyway.

You've got classic-size Spirit there!

Thanks. It's nice to know who came home with me. :)

They also did some ceramic ones and a few other things.
