Most are retired, suspended, members only or special event pieces. Unless otherwise specified they are mint with original boxes. I started collecting Precious Moments back in 1980 when I saw one of these cute pieces at a bank I did business with at the time. They caught my eye because of their cute faces and of the soft pastel colors that were used back then. I fell in love with them! I had no int
entions of ending up with so many but I received them as gifts for Christmas, Anniversary, Birthday, Valentine's Day etc. and before I knew it I had two entire curio cabinets full. I was a Charter Member of the Collectors Club for many years and also a Birthday Club member and so have many of those pieces as well. We have moved and downsized; they have been packed away in their boxes for ages and now need to find a new home. I also have many miniature and normal size collector plates, lithographs and plaques by Donald Zolan, as well as many other collector plates by various artists. I fell in love with these beautiful little kids and just couldn't pass them up! Most of these items are also in their original boxes and in pristine condition with appropriate paperwork included (certificate of authenticity, etc.). Most of the items listed in my shop come from my own private collection.
