Antique Jockey Horse Racing Statue Figure "King Ranch?
Sold For:
 or Sign In to see what it's worth.
This auction is for a horse racing jockey statue/figure that stands on a base of wood. I believe that the brown silks with the white " W" were used by the King Ranch, who were widely known in the horse racing industry for many years. The King Ranch silks were worn on two Kentucky Derby winners -- Assault in 1946 and Middleground in 1950. The statue is of a mixture of some type of unknown metal, a magnet does not stick to it. The condition of the statue itself is good. There are some places where the paint has worn off, such as on the cap. I believe that this shows up well in some of the pictures. You can also see where the paint has worn off on some of the detailed wrinkles in the pants. The wood base also has quite a few areas where the paint has worn/chipped off. The statue is slightly loose at it's base. You can move it slightly back and forth. But even though it is still very secure and stands straight. Also there appears to be a chip off of the very tip of the jockey's nose. I believe that most of these flaws are more or less cosmetic and could easily be fixed with a dab of paint. The whole statue/figure is a little under 13" tall. The base is 3 1/2" tall and 4 1/4" wide. The jockey itself stands 9 1/4" tall. The jockey and it's base weigh four and a quarter pounds. I have tried to describe this item as it appears to me and I'm hoping that the pictures will do the rest. Because I'm selling this "AS IS" I'll be happy to answer any questions or provide anyone with additional pictures if they would like. Shipping quote is for the lower 48 states only and payment would be appreciated with-in 4 days after the auction ends.
