About This Item
No dust jacket. First edition. Dark green fabric covered boards with gilt print on the front and spine. Wear at the corners and the head and tail of the spine. Looks as though something was once spilled on the front cover, but it is so dark that any stain is indistinguishable. Many black and white photographs. Brief biographies of many of the people and horses who were big deals in racing back over 75 years ago. A rare and valued book. This book will ship at over three pounds. Excess shipping costs are inculded in the list price.

Many of my books are oversized. Rather than ask for shipping adjustments at the time of purchase, the list price for heavier books includes the excess shipping cost. All of my photographs are of the actual product, taken by my trusty little Kindle Fire. Currently we have about 2900 books offered for sale online, with more being added daily.
