One of the most exciting horse racing pieces you will have the honor to own. Spectacular all-original 19th century horse racing sulky dates from the days of Dan Patch. This predates the modern low-wheeled sulkies later adapted. Nearly all wood construction with metal axles and outer wheel reinforcement. It is 100% all-original with raised leather seat, hand-forged hammered nails that hold the leather strapping and seat in place. Great old paint with green painted wood accents that bring this rich piece to life. Wood wheels & spokes sports metal sheeting covering the outsides of the wheel. Measures a stately 107x41x56". Would look amazing hanging from the ceiling or mounted to the wall. Best we have seen offered.
