<B>"Old Honesty" Horse Racing Photograph Attributed to John C. Hemment,</B></I> 17" x 14" matted to an overall 23.5" x 20.75", Latonia, Kentucky, October 25, 1907. A splendid piece of photography, this early portrait shows a victorious jockey astride "Old Honesty" in an allowance race winner's circle. A smaller image, 4.5" x 2.5" showing the moment of victory is tipped into the top right corner. Some fading, chips to edge of original matt. Good condition. Latonia, just below Cincinnati, was one of the nation's most prestigious tracks until silenced during the Great Depression.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Large Flat (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
