5 comments about Breyer Molds & Models: Horses, Riders, & Animals 1950-1995.

1. Good points: Well written with lots of good humor thrown in, most specimens beautifully photographed, great informational appendix! Also most values are just about right. I wish some antique dealers would take a look at this book! I'm still finding way too many overpriced Breyers(i.e. Hereford Bull for $69 that's still available RETAIL at half that!) Wake up antique dealers! Just becuz it's a Breyer doesn't mean it's worth megabucks! Bad points- some values are TOO low(like on the decorators) some photographs were too dark, many specimens not pictured that are sure to have SOME reference pix out there if the author had raken the time to look. Happily this is a minor problem! Eagerly anticipating the next edition!



2. This book is very informative and explains how Breyer got started and the take over of Reeves International.The estimated values of all animals are listed. This book is a must for serious and beginning collectors and admirers' of Breyer horses & animals.



3. I cannot over stress how GREAT this book is. It has pictures of nearly every model Breyer has ever made (enjoy the wedgewood Fury, pink and blue elephants, and Emporers Gold Bar, a SR SM with a unique base). This is the most complete, accurate and informative book available. It is seperated into two sections for ease of use: pictures, and text info. The values are pretty close to what Breyers SELL for (most of the SM's I buy are $1-2), with exceptions. Some say the high end prices are a bit low, but they are right in line with what I pay. Overall this book can't be beat, to the serious collector or antique dealer, anyone can use and enjoy this book.



4. I found this book very helpful for identifying models that are not so common, and also to bring me up to speed on all the new models since I have been out of the hobby for nearly seven years. Her information was well reseaeched, and she did a lot of indepth interviews with Breyer executives and sculptors to get as much info as possible. I did find her values to be a bit on the low side for what models are typically selling for nowdays. But all in all, for the information alone, it's a really valuable book!



5. This is a great book that is packed with information. It is great because I have read it three times and everytime I learn something new. This book is really helpful because I started a 4-H club for model horses and it is a great source of information for a club of basically new collectors. Sure, the prices are really low but I can figure out how much a horse is worth by comparing prices in the book. Anyways, a horse isn't worth how much a book says, but how much someone is willing to pay for the horse.
