Hello and welcome to another edition of Featured JAH! This week's issue is May/June 2002. It's been a bit of a dry spell this week, but at least Featured JAH is here to fulfill your blogging needs. Let's get started!
On the front cover, Spirit and Rain hang out on top of a hill, building hype for the release of everyone's favorite animated horse movie, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron. On the back cover, Shockwave makes waves! I had a Shockwave back in the day.
In the Editor's Desk, Stephanie talks about Spirit some more and also updates readers on the 2002 Breyer Tour and of course Breyerfest 2002. On page 3 is the first part of the article about the making of Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron.
On page 4-5 is more of the Spirit article.
On page 6 is the rest of the Spirit article, and on page 7 we have some Letters to the Editor.
After skipping an article about shopping for horses on the Internet and another article about customizing, on page 12 we have a news roundup. On page 13 is a reveal of various special runs produced in 2002.
On page 14-15 is an article about Kiger Mustangs, where the real-horse model for Spirit came from.
On page 16-17 we have a Breyerfest update, complete with some mouthwatering reveals! Check out St. Louis Blues, the raffle model! They also sold a Mauvelous in the silent auction and a set of artist proof models of Batal and Amira in the live auction, along with a Bourbon Street.
On page 18-19 we have more Breyerfest items, including some of the special runs!
In this week's centerfold is the handsome Bold Impression, the next installment of the Connoisseur series. 100 of these guys ended up being glossy, but I can't remember why? Maybe it was just a random surprise?
After skipping an article about western tackmaking, on page 24 is an announcement of the West Coast Model Horse Collector's Jamboree (sort of like a western version of Breyerfest) and a death notice (RIP) for Lonesome Glory. On page 25 is a listing of the 2002 Breyer Tour events.
After skipping a Breyer scrapbook, on page 28-29 we find an article about Felicia Browell's Breyer Animcal Collector's Guide, as well as the rest of the article about the Spirit movie.
After skipping Horse Trader, Breyer jr. and the Red, White and Blue photo contest results, on page 38 we have an Artist's Eye by Tom Bainbridge, and on page 40 is the first part of this week's Vintage Point featuring the Traditional Black Stallion, based on the Black from the Black Stallion series of books by Walter Farley. I may have told this story before, but I bought the original Black Stallion sight unseen from a Horse Trader ad shortly after I started subscribing to JAH at the tender age of 10. When he arrived, I was really disappointed with him because he didn't fit my vision of what the Black should look like at all. It's just a walking horse. The Classic Black Stallion is a much better representation, in my opinion.
On page 40 and the IBC (see what I did there?) is the rest of the Vintage Point article, and that brings us to the end of this week's issue. Check back next week for July/Aug 2002!
