John Henry ~ Joe Patchen (sale for charity)
The black Standardbred stallion Joe Patchen, sire of famous racehorse Dan Patch, was himself famous in his day. He was unusually tall and long-legged for a Standardbred, but it seemed to be to his advantage. Foaled in 1889, he won 53% of his starts and placed second in 39% more. He set the World Record for a half-mile track in 1896 at 2:05 1/4, a record that stood for seven years until it was broken by his own son Dan Patch.
Breyer's tribute model came out in 1991 and was discontinued in 1993. It shows off his black coat, star and stripe, and four socks.
This model was donated to our charity account for Harvest Hills Animal Shelter, and proceeds from its sale will help the shelter care for dogs and kitties in need. Thanks for your support!
