Re: Horses On SI Covers
It's fascinating and sad to see the gaps between 1993 to 2004 to 2009 to 2015 of how a sport/animal that once dominated the scene has slipped into, and I hate to use the word, obscurity. Even the cover from back in 1957 of The Lemon Drop Kid in the show ring is something incredible to see; you hear nothing of show horses being featured anymore because many don't consider it a sport.Lori Hamill wrote: ↑7 years ago Interesting through the years:

Re: Horses On SI Covers
Ah, what a time the 70's were. We had some GREAT horses in that decade. I have all the Seattle Slew SI's in my collection. He was my hero when I was 10.
