Unusual Heat's stud fee history help

[Psychotic Parakeet]

Hi, I am hoping someone here may have access to old stallion registries, perhaps some of the California-based publications, too.

I'm interested in knowing what the stud fee was for Unusual Heat from 1998 through 2010. I did find him listed in the '99 Thoroughbred Times, but with an unlisted fee. He did not show up in the alphabetical nor the regional listings within the Blood Horse '02 registry either. I have already tried looking at his domain website dedicated to him, and none of this information is listed. I even looked to see if Harris Farms' news archives on him would have something, and came up empty-handed. I know he stood stud the last six or so years of his career at Harris Farms. Before that, he was at Old English Rancho, and then briefly at another farm where he first stood stud at.

I appreciate any leads and help with this. Thank you so much for reading.

From Stallion Directories I have:

1998 - isn't listed in TB Times stallion directory index
1999 - only have TB Times like you
2000 - doesn't have a stud fee in TB Times stallion directory
2001 - $2,000 (TB Times)
2002 - $2,000 (TB Times)
2003 - I don't own any for this year
2004 - $3,000 (TB Times)
2005-2007 - I don't own any for these years
2008 - $12,500 (TB Times)
2009 - private (TB Times)

Racing Post shows stud fee history's sometimes. They have his from 2005 onward however there is a discrepancy in 2008 compared to what TB Times had unless his fee was changed after TB Times published their directory. https://www.racingpost.com/profile/hors ... ee-history

2005 - Private
2006 - $12,500
2007 - $12,500
2008 - $20,000
2009 - private
2010 - private

Then I tried BH's historical leading sire lists which only goes back to 2001:
2003 - $3,000 per https://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing ... &year=2003

This article says: 1999 he was moved to Old English Rancho in Sanger, Calif., where his first advertised fee was $2,000.

Holy Hera, Flanders! You have been immensely-helpful! Thank you for all of this. I also had no idea that BH kept the old sire lists, so that is something new I have learned. As far as the discrepancy on the stud fee for 2008, it appears he was originally at $12,500 and then it was bumped to $20,000:
