This item is from a smoke free, mold free, pet free home.  No where on this horse does it say Franklin Mint.  My husband bought it from the Franklin Mint when he worked there in the main offices in PA.  They outsourced everyone and auctioned off everything in the building.  This was one of the prototypes.  It is I believe a plaster horse.  It is not metal or ceramic.  It is in near mint condition.  The sting on the saddle is broken, but easily repaired.  It stands about 10 inches tall and 14 inches long.  It appears to be hand sculpted and hand painted.  It feels solid.  It has a ticket that says made in India.  I really know nothing about this except that he bought it from the Franklin Mint in an auction of the archives.  Please see the pictures, what you see is what you get.  This item is sold as is.  It is a very nice horse sculpture.  If you have any questions please email me and check out my other auctions, I love combining shipping, especially on these, if you pay for shipping with one the others will ship for free!

Also, I will not stop an auction early, I do not think it is fair and I believe it is against ebay rules so please do not ask.  Thank you!
