Circus Seals!

They're not equines, but they are circus! And so I am including them here as part of my collection.

North Light Reference Sheets

Pulled from Facebook; I wish I could find more of these reference sheets!


BreyerFest Pharoaoh

I have wanted this piece for a long, long time, but the prices have been very high as it is quite sought after. Knowing BreyerFest was a good time to buy (people need funds to buy new models), I kept an eye on eBay during BreyerFest. Not one but two popped up!

The first was listed at $125. Nope! Too much for me. The second, though, was listed at $79, and using eSnipe, I was able to beat another buyer who only went to $80. I got it for $81!

BreyerFest Auriverde

I love Breyer's clearware, so I was thrilled when Beth Dickinson picked up this piece for me at the 2016 BreyerFest!
