Re: Hollywood Park Auctions Memorabilia, Collectibles,...
Don't forget this is where some of the most famous racehorses in history have raced. I wouldn't be surprised if you can even find things related to those horses there, such as from Zenyatta, John Henry, Seabiscuit, Fali Time, and others.
Re: Hollywood Park Auctions Memorabilia, Collectibles,...
This is turning out to be a really great auction and is evidently exceeding all expectations. Today (Sunday) is supposed to be focused on antiques and memorabilia. If you are interested in getting some great racehorse collectibles then you'll have to move quickly.
