| I found some nice vintage zebra models by Louis Paul Jonas who was a taxidermist for several American museums, his studio produced many great scale model animals as well. I think the Grevys zebra proportions are a bit off, the head/neck seems a little large but that might just be the angle of the photo. The paintwork is very nicely done I think. From looking around at images the studio produced many, many different species but the sculpting quality was not consistent as some looked very accurate while others not so much.
