I’m still not entirely sure how I managed to lose one of my
Breyer horses for several months.
Rajah is a Breyer Collector Club Exclusive model on the
Marwari mold from 2014. I got him directly from Breyer and loved him when I got
him. But then I lost him! I searched everywhere for this silly horse for months
and I just could not find him. He was nowhere on my shelves and not among my
show string. I never took him to a show, so I couldn’t have lost him somewhere
outside the house. I racked my brain and looked for him for at least a good
hour one day. For a while I just gave up the search for him and hoped I didn’t
lose him and would find him eventually.
Last Saturday night, I was going through a cardboard box
that was falling apart. Then, low and behold, I pull out something wrapped up
in bubble wrap. I unwrapped it and was completely shocked to see I was holding
Rajah in my hands. The little baggie with his tack was wrapped up with him too.
I had searched for him for so long and yet here he was in
this box the whole time. I still have no clue how he got there. I don’t
remember sticking him in there, but I must have. Perhaps during a rush to pack
up for a model horse show?
However he got there, I am ecstatic to have found him. It’s
like getting him for the first time again. I took him out on a little photo
shoot the next day to appreciate him even more. Even though my shelves are
packed to the brim at the moment, I managed to make a spot for him, for this
boy deserves to be out and loved again after all that time lost.
