Meet Snowman, the $80 rescue horse who became one of the greatest show jumping champions in American history! This inspiring model celebrates the legendary gray gelding whose rags-to-riches story captured hearts worldwide and was immortalized in the bestselling book 'The Eighty Dollar Champion.'
In 1956, Harry de Leyer rescued Snowman from a slaughter truck for just $80. Within two years, this gentle plow horse was beating the nation's top show jumpers and winning championships at Madison Square Garden. Snowman's incredible jumping ability, combined with his kind temperament and unwavering heart, made him a national sensation. His story proves that champions can come from the most unexpected places.
The Traditional Series represents Breyer's flagship 1:9 scale models, featuring the most detailed and realistic horse sculptures in the Breyer line. Each model showcases authentic breed characteristics, premium craftsmanship, and exceptional quality that collectors have treasured for generations.
