Gladstone, NJ – November 30, 2000 – Just in time for
holiday shopping, the United States Equestrian Team
(USET) is hosting an online auction of three specialty
items online at www.uset.org.

Artisan, Joseph McCabe, created an avian replica of
the historic USET stables. This amazing duplication of

catalogue and USET Christmas card.  The minimum bid is
$400.00.  The birdhouse is 52in X 24in.

Anniversary scarves.  Each scarf was signed in Sydney
by the USET Eventing, Show Jumping and Dressage
Olympic teams.  Minimum bid on each scarf is $125.00.

Breyer, maker of the world’s finest model horses, has
teamed with the USET to continue to showcase
world-class Olympic and International equine sports
through the Breyer Gallery/USET Olympic Disciplines
series.  Continuing the series, “Courage” depicts a
pair of athletes jumping over a cross country water
jump.  Crafted in detailed fine porcelain, “Courage”
is presented on a hardwood presentation base with a
brass plaque.  Bidding begins at $200.00.

Bids can be placed by email to Linda Reizen at
