Book Reviews of Hartland Horsemen
Book Review: it's finally here!
Summary: 5 Stars
This long-awaited reference guide to one subset of the prolific Hartland line of collectable model figurines is everything I had hoped and much, much more. Dealing with the various horseman, their mounts and accoutrements, it is a fascinating trip down memory lane for the casual collector, and a treasure trove of details for those who take this hobby more seriously. There are almost countless variations in these horse and rider sets, and Ms. Fitch has done a supurb job of documenting at least *most* of them. Any little detail, whether it be saddle type, hat style or color of uniform can be found within this meticulously prepared volume. If you collected Hartland figures as a child, or are now wishing you had, this is an invaluable reference guide. It's a must-buy for Hartland collectors! My only complaint: the Hartland line is so huge that no one volume could possibly cover it all. And now I have to wait until the next volume can be printed!
Summary of Hartland Horsemen
Saddle up for adventure with the horse-and-rider sets by Hartland Plastics, the small midwestern company that set a standard of excellence for mass produced, plastic figurines. Whether you like horses; collect toys, model horses, TV mementos or Western memorabilia; or just want to recall the days when heroes were good guys on horseback, this book will make you smile. Hartland Plastics manufactured about six dozen riders and 10 standing gunfighters, over 100 horses for the riders, and countless miniature accessories--and the fun they had shows. The quality sculpture by Roger Williams and Alvar Backstrand and fine attention to painted details give Hartland models a place in the history of American toys and the hearts of kids and collectors. Hartland expert Gail Fitch has assembled a guide loaded with color photography and valuable information for the collector, including current prices, data tables, and advice on care and repair of your models.Antiques & Collectibles Books
