Hi all,
My daughters Joyce & Anouk have been collecting Schleich since 2004. It all started with a couple of horse models and a catalogue that my husband, their father, brought them as a present from a business trip abroad. The booklet showed them so many other models that they liked too, that the collecting virus hit them there and then.
Ever since, my husband and I have been helping the girls get the models they wanted. To show the growing collection, and keep a nice overview ourselves, I built a website for the collection.
Although I am not a real collector at heart, I kind of got sucked in by browsing all the catalogues, trying to find out which variants there are, eBay bidding, andsoforth. The indexing of the models appeals to my sense of order, and as I have been very interested in all animals my whole life, this collection presents a nice combination of the two.
The collection was originally started by Joyce and Anouk, but now it's great to enjoy this hobby with the four of us together!
Best regards,
Caroline
