Jet Run - Original Release - US Equestrian Team - B-Stamp

Jet Run was a Maryland-bred Thoroughbred who proved successful as a hunter-jumper from a young age.  After making quite an impression at age 6, he was purchased by Mexico and competed there, taking home Individual Gold and Team Silver for that country in the 1975 Pan-American Games before being purchased and brought back to the US to continue his career under rider Michael Matz.  With Matz's guidance, he took the Individual Gold and helped the US Team win Team Gold at the Puerto Rico Pan-American Games in 1979. Among his many other accomplishments, he also won the American Gold Cup twice, making it look effortless, as in the photo below. 

Breyer honored Jet Run and his two equine teammates on the US Olympic Team with portrait models which ran from 1980-1993.

This fellow is Near Mint with only one pinpoint eartip rub and mild age yellowing in his star.  He features a beautiful, vintage speckly paint job with lovely shading.  He is a B-stamp model.

The rest of the models from the USET Team set, and their original cardboard box, are being sold separately here: Might Tango, Keen.
