Carlton... the Anonymous was me... Mark. I just forgot to type in my name. Thanks for posting that beautiful High Hurdles Print. I would certainly agree that the vignette at the bottom is strikingly similar, and bodes very well for the authenticity of your plate.

When I first saw it (thanks for clarifying it was on ebay) I was just expressing a hint of doubt, as I had not seen a caption like that before (and lord knows, we've all been burned a time or two!) Just part of the learning process, I suppose. That's what makes this forum so valuable.

Anyway... please let us know when you have the plate "in hand", and can possibly reveal more about its origin. It is gorgeous, and I bet there's a 99.9% chance it is indeed of the time period, as the vignette matches the Hurdles Print to a tee!
