Ronda Mosley found a 2,000+ piece collection for sale last week and was kind enough to look for pieces for several people, including me. It was an amazing collection, and I found several pieces I have wanted a while.
Collector's Unicorn, JC Penner SR 1984, no number, $50, 9/8/2018, Roxie Fiste (via Ronda Mosley), Vandalia, OH.
He is beautifully white and with no yellowing of the glue or chunks out of the flocking. Amazing for a 34 year old model!
Allison Pareis had a clearwater piece in her own collection that I bought.
Navya, #711277, $30, BreyerFest 2017 Store Special, 9/8/2018.
Spirit of the East, #710294, 1994 JCP SR, $25/set, 9/8/2018, Roxie Fiste (via Ronda Mosley), Vandalia, OH.
I thought this was actually the original Breyer mare and foal in alabaster until I saw them in person.
The foal has pretty pinking in her ears and on her nose.
Spirit of the East, #710294, 1994 JCP SR, $25/set, 9/8/2018, Roxie Fiste (via Ronda Mosley), Vandalia, OH.
The mare has lovely shading and grey "eyeliner" around her eyes.
Another piece I thought I had bought was Laag, the 1996 Commemoratve Edition of 10,000.
But this isn't Laag, it's even better! It is Before the Wind, #701797, a Toys R Us special run (7,500) from 1997!
I did not have my ID books with me when I got him from Ronda, but with that black stripe on the mane, back, and tail, I knew I had something else. I am really happy to have him!
My new model is numbered 3,755 out of 7,500 on the belly.
This piece has a bit of mystery and I'll need to do some research, but his hatband is supposed to be painted red - his has not been painted.
Old Time, $206, $21, 1988 - 1990, 9/8/2018, Roxie Fiste (via Ronda Mosley), Vandalia, OH.
