Description
These are the real deal, folks -- official 1975 Kentucky Derby mint julep glasses produced by Churchill Downs for the 101st running of the race and the centennial celebration, marked 1875-1975. Each glass features the iconic frosted design with black and yellow Kentucky Derby banner, a dramatic illustration of jockeys thundering past the famous Churchill Downs twin spires, and the bold red 1975 date set against the frosted lower body. The reverse side carries a complete list of Kentucky Derby winners from 1909 through 1974, with Triple Crown winners denoted by a crown symbol, and the official copyright mark of H. Stevens, Inc. The lot appears to include two distinct variations: a taller frosted-body style and a slightly shorter style with a gold/yellow interior rim finish, both authentic period pieces showing light age-consistent wear including some label fading on select glasses -- a natural characteristic that only adds to their vintage charm.
