A very cool and very rare Misty mounted on a wooden base. She was presented to Kendy Allen in 1990 for her work with Misty II. Their names used to be on a plaque on the base, but it was lost to time. At least one other Misty mounted on a base like this is known to exist.

Marguerite Henry and her Morgan Horse Friday in the lead, Ed Richardson follows on Misty, and Tex Drexler brings up the rear on the donkey Brighty/Jiggs. Photo from the Pictorial Life Story of Misty.  Marguerite Henry riding Misty at Mole Meadow in Wayne, Illinois. Marguerite usually didn't ride Misty herself so there are only a few photos of her astride Misty. Photo from the Pictorial Life Story of Misty.  Standing on a stool was a famous trick of Misty's and many of her descendants were taught this trick. Here's Misty II on a stool in 1988 at a Pennsylvania fair.

The Franklin Mint company produced this china Misty in 1988 as part of their famous literary horses series. The model's markings closely match the real Misty. The color wavers between chestnut and palomino. We've split out non-Breyer Misty models on to their page on our website: https://www.mistysheaven.com/othermistymodels.html  |
