| Hi This plastic model horse was in a big bag of plastic animals that I bought at a toy fair a few years ago. I was intrigued that on the underside was marked NGLAND - yes the E was missing and it was a horse model that I could not identify the manufacturer. However, recently I saw a similar model on the Herald Toys and Models website which clearly stated this was made by Johilco and that it is scarce. Scale is 1:32nd so goes well with Britains.    _________________ Chris  |

| Nice lttle horse with a lovely smile. Great you found what brand it is.
Did it missed one hoof or is it a congenital defect? |

| Hi Christophe
It took a couple of years to find out who made this smiling horse but finally the quest is complete.
You are correct it is missing one of it's hooves on the back leg. Quite likely it's original owner bit it off! _________________ Chris |

Poor horse, it is missing a Christmas ball. 
That's one of these vintage treasures that most of us just ignore. It is a style clearly different from Britains but it is a huge advantage that these brands could work very well together. Thanks for sharing!
