Featured JAH - 12/21/2024, May/June 2005

 Hello and welcome to another edition of Featured JAH! This week we're covering May/June 2005, so let's get started! 




















On the cover, a beautiful palomino Morgan looks nothing like the Kennebec Count in the box. 





















In the Editor's Desk, Natasha talks about the Middle Ages, relating to the upcoming Breyerfest 2005. 





















On page 3 we have Letters to the Editor. 





















On page 4 is the first page of an article about Morgans! 





















The Morgan article concludes on page 5, along with an article about Kennebec Count and photo of his model. 





















On page 6 is another Breyerfest 2005 preview, including reveals of the beautiful Gwendolyn and Arthur. 





















The Breyerfest preview continues on page 7. 





















After skipping a how-to article, on page 10 is the first page of an article about Breyer portrait horse Ideal! 





















The Ideal article concludes on page 11. I was unable to find a date of death for Ideal, but he has to have passed on by now, considering he was born in 1985. Cripes, that means he was older than I am! 





















On page 12 is the reveal of the first Connoisseur gambler's choice, Jokers Wild! While I kept subscribing to JAH until 2006 or so, I wasn't paying much attention to the hobby during my college years and thus, didn't enter for any of the Connoisseur releases. I probably should have tried for this one, though - imagine how exciting it was for whoever got those two Joker models! 





















After skipping Breyer jr., an article about jousting, another how-to article, a judge's clinic, Horse Trader and a book review, on page 26 we have this week's Vintage Club featuring the G1 Drafter! 





















The Vintage Point article concludes on page 27. 





















On page 28 we have a listing of Breyer Fun Days from 2005, featuring that year's Tour Model, Tristan (the Tour Model has since been discontinued, along with the Breyer Tour). 





















After skipping the Calendar of Events, on the back cover we have the beautiful Wapasha, the 2005 Mid-States special run. Mid-States special runs are also now a thing of the past, but we probably have enough other special runs to replace it. 

And that's it for this issue! Check back next week for July/Aug 2005!
