Foreword The organization we know as the American Paint Horse Association was formed as the American Paint Stock Horse Association in 1962 to collect, record and preserve the pedigrees of Paint Horses. The growth of the breed in numbers, in stature and in public acceptance is an indication of the ful- fillment of the need. The book you have in your hands is an updated and reorganized printing of the rules that have been established to further the progress of the breed.

Hereafter, the APHA included all horses with registration papers in the APSHA and APQHA.
