"I'd Love To Be Yours"


The Pony Club ran in the UK for several years before they issued any ponies, and the first one seemed a bit experimental. She was all white all over, with no symbol, and the idea was to give her an identity yourself. She was promoted with the tagline, "I'd Love To Be Yours", emotional blackmail that kids everywhere fell for (including me! I still remember begging my parents to let me renew my club membership!)

UK Comic advert

The full advert from the comic, including information about the other things included in the activity packs, can be found here.

 When receiving the club pamphlet, there was a graphic of the pony with a speech bubble saying, "I'm yours!". Happy kids everywhere!

It's not uncommon to find them second hand with a symbol drawn on. I didn't draw a symbol, but mine was known by the name "Beauty." (Or Buety, since I couldn't spell!)

The pony pictured above is not my childhood original, she has rather seen better days!

My adoption certificate was also filled in by childhood me, but here it is with the scribble edited out :)

The club newsletters in 1989 were family themed - advertised with the Loving Family Ponies, and full of things around Baby Pony, which included how to make her clothing, a bed for the night, and other things including communication of popular names from members. (Beauty was never mentioned, so I was clearly an original namer!)

She was originally advertised with red hair, but the pony actually ended up with white, making her a literal 'blank slate'.
