Quarter Horse Yearling

 

The earliest Quarter Horse Yearling models have only the round "Breyer Molding Co." mold stamp. In 1971 or 1972 the "U.S.A." mold stamp was added, and some of these also have the "B" stamp. The Quarter Horse Yearling was sculpted by Chris Hess and is Breyer mold #101.

A symbol means that I don't yet have a picture of that model. If you can help, please see the Help Wanted section. Clicking on any photo below will open a larger version of that picture.
