We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

A set of eight framed sepia photographic prints from 1930 depicts famous Thoroughbred racehorses in profile, styled in a traditional gentleman's library aesthetic. Each piece consists of paper imagery mounted in cream card window mounts, set behind glass within ebonised and gilt wooden frames. The portraits show individual horses standing on turf backgrounds, accompanied by descriptive typography inscriptions below each image detailing the owner, horse name, pedigree and trainer. The set measures 34 cm high, 38 cm wide, 2 cm deep. These works suit placement together or dispersed around a home interior, specifically positioned above a sideboard in a study, library or hallway.

FAQs

1930s photographic racehorse prints are monochrome or sepia-toned studio and field portraits capturing prominent Thoroughbred horses, typically produced for equestrian enthusiasts and collectors during the interwar period.

Prints from this era were typically printed on photographic paper, mounted onto cardboard window mounts, and set behind glass within stained wood or ebonised frames with gilt sight edges.

Authentic period prints feature tonal gradation characteristic of early silver gelatin or photogravure printing, printed typography detailing the horse name and owner, and natural age-related toning on the card mount.

Display the set in a grid layout along a hallway, above a sideboard, or inside a study to create a structured gallery wall that provides historical interest.

Display prints away from direct sunlight and damp conditions, ensure conservation-grade backing materials are used, and clean the glass gently with a dry microfibre cloth.
