I will never forget her she was so nice.

To be honest, I'm not even sure what they mean by "social media."

Her collection was already legendary when I started in the hobby in the late 70s, and I can only imagine where it was by the time she passed. She was such a fixture of the hobby that although I spoke to her only once or twice, it always felt like I knew her. <br /><br />I remember my excitement in the mid-2000s when she purchased a couple of Freeman-McFarlin pieces from me because she didn't have them in her private collection. I was stunned at the idea I could possibly own anything she didn't have already.LostInAn80sFognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7371380495065351450.post-69332170779203551822015-04-07T01:12:21.402-04:002015-04-07T01:12:21.402-04:00I had not heard of the listings until now. Do you ...I had not heard of the listings until now. Do you know if they are going to do a complete herd dispersal of her collection?<br /><br />I was so hoping that the collection could be turned into a museum.<br /><br />I met Karen in the early 90's and bought a lot of my early collection from her when she was still in Shadow Hills, California. By then she had a lot of it packed up and moved to Nevada but what she did have there was amazing!!!<br /><br />I also have several of her BHR collection models. Love her Clydesdales.Peggynoreply@blogger.com
