Limited edition and beautifully detailed bronze of Secretariat by renowned sculptor Jim Reno, 5/100, previously owned by Secretariat’s owner Penny Tweedy. The solid bust, with hand-painted accents to the legs, hoofs, and nose, is set upon a marble stand which bears a small engraved plaque, measures 14 x 16.5 x 7 and weighs almost 44 pounds. Impressed into the bronze’s base is “Secretariat 1970–1989 © Jim Reno.” In fine condition. Accompanied by two property certificates from the 1999 sale of the statue on Sothebys.amazon.com. The original model was commissioned by the Kentucky Horse Park Foundation, and was purchased when Mrs. Tweedy was raising funds to build the Secretariat sculpture that was presented to the Horse Park. A fantastic piece of art that perfectly captures the grace and strength of one of racing’s most dominant horses. Oversized. RR Auction COA.
