Are you looking for unique wall decorations for a sports-themed bar? Try a different sport for a change from the usual hockey, baseball and basketball photos and lend your establishment that touch of class that only comes from the Sport of Kings. No, not golf - the other Sport of Kings, horse racing. Horse photos and race memorabilia add something special to your room that you just won't get from any other type of sports memorabilia. You can turn your bar - either retail or your own man room - into homage to the beauty and power of thoroughbreds racing for the finish line.
Kentucky Derby Winners
Line the walls of your man room with finish line photos of the most famous Kentucky Derby winners of all time. Triple Crown winner Secretariat deserves a place of honor, of course, and you've got an enormous range of photos to choose from for your wall of Kentucky Derby fame. Some of the most attractive include one or more photos of Ron Turcotte riding the majestic horse across the finish line in the Derby, along with Turcotte's signature on 1973 Derby tickets and other pieces of Kentucky Derby Memorabilia.
If you don't have Secretariat fever, or think he should share the spotlight with other famous Derby winners, look for a framed collage that features track photos of multiple winners of the first leg of the Triple Crown. Some of the more popular combos include trios that feature Triple Crown Winners Secretariat, Seattle Slew and Affirmed, complete with signatures of the winning jockeys and descriptive plaque. Some even include extra decorative touches, such as a riding crop or a fan of tickets from the Derby.
Ticket Collages and Other Memorabilia
Offset the horse photos with other horse racing memorabilia, such as a framed collage of replica tickets from the last fifty years of the Kentucky Derby, or movie posters from Secretariat, the movie. Reach back further into the past with a collage-framed set of memorabilia commemorating the triumphs of Seabiscuit, one of the all-time greats. The set includes photos, digital reprints of the front-page story form the Baltimore News and the race chart printed in the Baltimore News the day after the 1938 Pimlico Special Match race between Seabiscuit and War Admiral.
Other Races Memorabilia
There are other races besides the Derby, of course, and many winners who didn't achieve Triple Crown status. Their pictures still rate a place in your wall decorations. One of the best ways to showcase your horse racing memorabilia is in framed photo sets that feature all three winners of the Triple Crown Races from each year. The Triple Crown Triples featured online each include photos of the winners of the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes for each year from 1989 on.
Don't skimp on decorating your man cave or game room. Choose fabulous horse photos of some of the most majestic mounts in horse racing history paired with race memorabilia from some of the biggest, most exciting races of all time.
