super6 Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I was going to bid on this but didn't, I have all those animals loose. Nice to see it's gone to a good home. Have you got any more boxed Herald? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEBRITFARMER Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Very nice, some pieces in there I wouldn't mind getting my grubby little mitts on. When are you going on vacation :D :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too, so difficult to find. I have one early boxed Herald set, 7570 with 24 pieces. I will post some pictures when I get a digi camera! There are two styles of gate with one or two diagonals. Have you any of the brown cattle? rare as hens teeth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super6 Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Do you mean the plastic cattle from the lead moulds Yes thats the ones, I have a cow feeding and the calf laying down, from 1959 approx. I'd love to get the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEBRITFARMER Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 I've only ever seen the standing and feeding cow, didn't know they did a calf. Do you know if they did all the calfs and the bull ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super6 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 I've only ever seen the standing and feeding cow, didn't know they did a calf. Do you know if they did all the calfs and the bull ? The Peter Cole book lists all the '59 cattle as being available in brown, doesn't mention the calf though, there is also a colour picture of the 3 cows. I've never seen the bull in brown. The '57 Herald bull is also available in brown, usually with a white patch on it. OOOOOOPs Just worked out my lying down calf is from the '57 Herald issue, albeit with the latter Britains marking's on base, It's in a slightly lighter shade of brown . It's possible the other '57 calves are available in the same colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a standing/feeding cow on e-bay this week, no tail one ear and one horn possibly some teeth marks and drool . Can't remember what it went for. It was with a load of other animals peeking out behind something, listed as damaged. I had to ask for exact damage. A lot cheaper than my one though.
