My last blog post, where I shared my love of playing with laminated
resins and plastics as a kid, inspired me to pull out my collection of Lea
Stein brooches today and share them with you. It’s a tiny collection; but it makes me
happy. I first started collecting Ric the Terrier while living in New York
City in the early 90s. (My grandpa had Airedales so I have a real soft spot for them in any form.) I broke my “Ric the Terrier-only” rule when I came
across the Cairn Terrier-looking brooch. I am pretty sure it is called “Kimdoo”
– I am thinking that the shorter muzzle and not-so-brick-like head might make
it a Cairn; but it could be a Scottie or Westie. All I know is I loved it, so home it came with me!
