David Winter was my very first experience with collectibles. I began a tradition of buying a piece or two for my mom every Christmas. I was fascinated by the detail---and the elusiveness of that darn mouse (much more challenging than finding the seahorse most times).

As time went on, I changed my gift-buying habits, and it wasn't until maybe 7 years later that I discovered the "WOW!™"-ness of Harbour Lights. Apart from these two lines, I've never even remotely come close to buying from another company.
