Zippo Pine Bar......?

Ok so my mare is a very close descendant of Zippo Pine Bar. And I know he is dead but Im just wondering what his stud fee WAS. Anyone know??





PS: I love him, and Barpassers Image [my gelding's sire]. And I know his stud fee alone was $2500.00

Zippo Pine Bar......?
I worked for Bob Perry Quarter Horses for nearly 8 years right up until the Perry's sold the ranch. I worked there when Zippo died and was present when he was buried. His grave marker says "You gave us the ride of our lives" he was buried under the American flag at the top of the driveway on the ranch (now belongs to Jim Babcock). He was the coolest horse ever and not a mean bone in his body. I worked for 5 of the 8 years there foaling mares during the breeding season and would have to feed him throughout the night because he had weight problems. When you opened his door, he wouldn't let you close it again and would butt it. He wanted you to stand and talk to him all night.


In 1995, his stud fee was $5000, in 1996 it was raised to $12,500 with a limited book (25 mares only) and then the last year (1997), he bred only Mrs Perry's mares and got 2 in foal, both colts that survived.
