Due to overwhelming traffic on this particular web site, resulting in traffic quota issues, the Abyssinian Historical Presentation has been moved to the following URLs. I apologize for the inconvenience.
Because of terrific cooperation by breeders world-wide in providing photos to be included in this presentation, it is growing tremendously in size! In order to keep the slideshows at a reasonable size and length, the presentation has been reorganized as follows:
Part 1: From the Early Beginings to 1950 (46 slides)
Part 2: From 1951 to 1960 (42 slides)
Part 3: From 1961 to 1970 (58 slides)
Part 4: From 1971 to 1980 (67 slides)
Part 5: From 1981 to 1990 (86 slides)
Part 6: From 1991 to 2000 (109 slides)
Part 7: From 2001 to 2009 (87 slides)
NOTE: I am always interested in adding missing photos to this presentation and your help would be appreciated. I am also interested in expanding this presentation to include Abyssinians that have been "foundation stock" in other countries around the world. Please contact Karen Lawrence if you have additional photos or information available.
