Fred
Stone Triple Crown plate
This is the first of the series (which they did backwards
for some reason) and features the 4 most recent Triple Crown winners: Citation, Secretariat,
Seattle Slew, and Affirmed. Although you can't really tell from the photo, this one is signed
by the artist and all four jockeys.
Second Fred Stone Triple Crown plate (left)
This one features Assault, Count Fleet, Whirlaway,
and War Admiral. It is also signed by all the surviving jockeys.
Third Fred Stone Triple Crown plate (right)
This one features Sir Barton, Gallant Fox,
and Omaha. It is not signed as there are no surviving jockeys.
Northern Dancer a tribute to the Stallion Extrordinaire by Tim Francis
Whirlaway by Gregory Perillo. Put out in 1984
as the first in a series called "Thoroughbreds" that also includes Seabiscuit, Man O'War, and
Secretariat. This is #1747 of a limited edition of 9500 plates. Perillo also
did a series of figurines of these same horses which I assume was a related series.

Man O' War plate by Homer Laughlin. This one has a border of embossed fruits around the edge
but as Laughlin used many different plate blanks it may come with other borders. The age is unknown,
but Laughlin has been around since the 1920's.
1974 Kentucky Derby souvenir plate. This one is a small 6" plate that is one of the
many souvenir items put out for the 100th Derby in 1974.
Maryland Jockey Club plate
This one commemorates the 1992 Pimlico Special. There
are two others in the set, one for the Preakness and one for the Black-eyed Susan/Early Times
Turf. I only pictured one since they are identical except for the name of the race and date.
Churchill Down souvenir plate
This is a smaller 6" plate. No idea of the age.
