This gentle fellow is one of Chris Hess's most iconic sculpts.  The Old Timer rests with one foot cocked after his day's work is done, waiting to be unharnessed.  The dapple grey color on this mold was produced from 1966-1987, but saw changes over the years, including harness color, size of dapples, and finishes.  Early models were glossy, while later ones were made in semi-gloss or matte finishes.

This fellow is in Near Mint with only slight age yellowing.  No post-production rubs or marks were seen.  That said, he has some interesting factory flaws - It looks like his painter handled him before his paint was dry, because there are smudges, missing paint, and even a fingerprint right where someone would have picked him up when wet.  They are on his jaws and under the bottom of his neck.  They don't jump out because of his coloring, and are a fascinating part of his history.  He features zillions of tiny dapples, a brown harness, and his gold chains are still shiny.
