Featured JAH - 8/9/2025, Sept/Oct 2010

 Hello and welcome to another edition of Featured JAH! We're covering Sept/Oct 2010 this week, so let's get going! 




















This issue has the distinction of being the first JAH I received after my post-college return to the hobby, 15 years ago! Fun stuff. 




















In the Editor's Desk, Arlene has quietly departed, and while the column isn't attributed to anyone in particular, Stephanie Macejko is listed as the Editorial Advisor, so it was probably her. I wonder what the story behind that was. 





















On page 3 we have Letters to the Editor. 





















On page 4 we have the first part of the article about Zenyatta. 





















The Zenyatta article concludes on page 5 with a reveal of the Zenyatta model and Christmas ornament. 





















Moving right along, on page 6 we have the first part of the Horses of Graceland article! 





















The Horses of Graceland article wraps up on page 7 with a reveal of the Rising Sun model. 





















In lieu of an actual Breyerfest wrap-up article, on page 8 we have a number of photos from Breyerfest! Feast your eyes on all things Breyerfest 2010. 





















The Breyerfest photo album continues on page 9. Note the photo of Andrea Gurdon (Breyer History Diva) in the lower right corner. 





















The Breyerfest album continues to continue on page 10. Yes, William Shatner did put in an appearance on Sunday! Wish I'd been there to see it. 





















The Breyerfest photo album finally wraps up on page 11. 





















Moving right along, on page 12 we have another article about the 2010 WEG! 





















The WEG article continues on page 13. 





















On page 14 we have a preview of all the special runs Breyer made for the WEG, excluding the smaller reissues of various regular runs from the previous many years. I still have Gold Raven, and had Woodburn, Headley Britannia, Cedric and Mandiba at one point, but eventually sold them all off. 





















More WEG special runs appear on page 15, along with the kid-size jumps that still (as far as I know) show up at Breyerfest every year. 





















After skipping Mailbag and Model Horse Show, on page 18 we have the beautiful JAH special run Melange! Still one of the prettier Gisellse, in my opinion. 





















After skipping Artist's Sketch, the rest of Model Horse Show, an ad for some Pony Gals stuff and a how-to article, on page 24 we find Vintage Point, this week featuring Lady Roxana (or "Roxanna" as the title incorrectly spells it)! 





















Vintage Point wraps up on page 25. 






















After skipping a short article about the Harmony on Horseback resin and the Calendar of Events, on page 28 we have On the Trail with Breyer! 





















There was an ad for Cloud Nine on the inside of the back cover, but we all know what he looks like (or can easily look him up), so here's the back cover! The extremely pink Pink Ribbon Horse and Pink Ribbon Stablemates Horse make their debut! The Pink Ribbon Horses had an unfortunate tendency to yellow over time (which is even somewhat apparent in this ad), but the subsequent Pink Ribbon Horse on Bluegrass Bandit doesn't seem to have that issue. 

And with that, we've reached the end of this week's issue! Check back next week for Nov/Dec 2010!
