ANTIQUE USA CAST EQUESTRIAN HORSE FENCE JOCKEY RACING ART BOOKENDS Newport KY For Sale

Set of mid century book ends. Marked Newport, Ky. Please see all photos for condition and measurements.

The inscription "Newport Ky" is a critical piece of information. It confirms that these bookends are local regional pieces from Northern Kentucky, a region deeply tied to historic horse racing tracks like Latonia Race Track (which operated in nearby Covington/Latonia from 1883 to 1939).Many of these cast metal pieces were manufactured by regional mid-century foundries or distributed as premium commemorative souvenirs for Kentucky derby and racing enthusiasts.
