Hobby Nostalgia - the printed page!

Amidst my decent collection of Model Horse Books and value guides are lots of Hobby Magazines which I still dig and refer to.

I am a Vintage Custom lover and recall pouring over the ads and saleslists before the days of the Internet.  A few gems I unearthed recently are still amazing:

Janet Piercy’s World of Model Horses book that taught us so much! 1988



Guide to Judging & Showing
Equine Miniaturist, Project 88/Rebecca Hileman?

Julie Froelich’s 1992 How-to Guide
(Love the humor!)



Of course there are MANY resources for everything from painting formulas to tackmaking and performance.  Magazines were incredible - JAH, MHG, TMTP, THHN, and on and on.  Where did YOU learn most about the hobby?
