Proud Arabian Mare

Old Mold - Right

New Mold - Right

New Mold - Left

The "Old Mold" Proud Arabian Mare (PAM), which has no mold marks, was made by Breyer until 1959. Breyer stopped producing it at that time due to similarities to a mold made by Hagen-Renaker. When the mold was reintroduced in 1971 after negotiations with Hagen-Renaker there were minor modifications, including a splayed front left leg and the addition of the round "Breyer Molding Co." and "U.S.A." mold stamps. See also the In-Between Mare. The Proud Arabian Mare is Breyer mold #215.
