Last summer I got my first vintage Breyer box (model included) from Craigslist, and I have been actively looking for vintage boxes every since. Last week I found six - three from collector Kate Gross in Prospect, Ohio, and three from Rainbow's End Tack in Seaford, Delaware.
One from Rainbow's End Tack has me so excited - such an unusual box!!
#620, Lippizan, 1975-1980, $55 w/box, Rainbow's End Tack Shop, Seaford, Delaware, 1/2014.
#234 Appaloosa Stock Horse Foal, 1983-1986, $35 w/box, Rainbow's End Tack Shop, Seaford, Delaware, 1/2014.
The foal has an unusual white spot on its right front hoof. It is not a rub.
$168, Scratching Foal, 1970-1986, $25 w/box, Rainbow's End Tack Shop, Seaford, Delaware, 1/2014.
This piece has nice pinking and may be a pearly.
#151, Grazing Foal, 1964-1976, 1978-1981, $10 w/box, Kate Gross, Prospect, Ohio, 1/2014.
(This piece may be semi-gloss.)
#134, Running Foal, 1963-1987, $10 w/box, Kate Gross, Prospect, Ohio, 1/2014.
I was surprised to find a palomino foal in the box with a bay foal out, but I don't mind. I have an email out to Kate asking her if that's how Breyer marketed the foal or if there is a different box for each color of foal.
Addendum 2/15/18
Yesterday there was some discussion on Blab vintage Breyer boxes and a gal posted pictures of this box only with a PALOMINO foal on the cover and a palomino foal inside. The general consensus was that the box with the brown foal on the cover was hard to find and the one with the palomino the easier.
