Rural Heritage Includes Breyers

The rural lifestyle TV network, RFD-TV has a series called "Rural Heritage", with clunky video of exciting things like old guy in overalls rambling on about the different kinds of horse-drawn plow, or homesteaders and small farmers explaining their philosophy on dairy cows. But this episode covered the Waverly Horse Auction in Iowa. Besides plenty of beautiful draft horseflesh, they had interviews with the folks behind the scenes.

But even more interesting, behind the behind-the-scenes folks, is a beautiful team of flocked dapple grey Breyer Belgians pulling a wagon! I'm guessing it's a Dick Eighmey creation, considering it was in Iowa (where Mr. Eighmey lived and created).
