EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of horse racing in 1939. Titled "Pasch, Jockey: G. Richards" it showcases a moment frozen in time from the series "Racehorses & Jockeys" by W. D. & H. O. Wills, Bristol. In this portrait, we see a distinguished male jockey named G. Richards donning his signature pink cap and headdress as he sits atop a magnificent bay horse on lush green grass. The image exudes an air of elegance and grace that was characteristic of the sport during that era. The attention to detail is remarkable - from the vibrant colors of both man and beast to the intricate number 19 displayed prominently on their attire, symbolizing their partnership in this thrilling race. Sir Gordon Richards, as he would later be known for his knighthood, embodies the spirit of a true sportsman with his confident posture and determined gaze into the distance. This photograph not only transports us back to a bygone era but also serves as a testament to the timeless allure of horse racing and its enduring appeal throughout history. A treasured piece from The Print Collector's collection, this vintage cigarette card offers us an intimate glimpse into one of Sir Gordon Richard's iconic moments on horseback - forever capturing his legacy as one of Britain's most celebrated jockeys in the 20th century.
