Sherman Morgan (body)

The most famous son of Justin Morgan, Sherman Morgan sired Black Hawk, who became a foundation sire for the Standardbred, Tennessee Walking Horse and American Saddlebred breeds.  More than just a fancy saddle horse, Sherman was famous for his trotting speed, holding speed records that went unbroken in his lifetime.

The original Sherman Morgan Artist Series tribute model, sculpted by Jeanne Mellin Herrick, is this red chestnut with one right hind sock and a stripe.  He was available only from 1987-1990, when damage to the production mold caused it to be discontinued.  (It was later fixed with the addition of a different tail and is now back in use in different colors.)

This fellow is Body condition because he's a shrinky.  He's already noticeably smaller than his brothers, and has developed the white powdery residue and some liquid seepage from his vent hole.  If you're learning to customize, grab this guy for cheap to practice on... Even experienced customizers need a "Guinea Pig" model to try out new techniques.
