Zev vs Papyrus ~ 1923
Very old footage of the great race between Zev and Paprus back in 1923.
I love seeing stuff like this. Very cool. No sound, but still fun to see how it was back then. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SW3lgzKDQAs |
Phenomenal piece of history!
Very cool with the aerial shots and whoa... a flustered and awkward Major Belmont with his kind eyes and wow thousands of men who look the same :D ... I just absolutely loved this. Love old footage too, sistah... so happy you posted this. :) |
Thanks.. I loved it too and find it funny to think of people dressing like that today.. Thoroughbred Racing Global is where I actually came across it on FB.

It is just lovely and, dork that I am, I watched it again. :o
I don't know... probably no one else here gets all choked up watching the old liners but for anyone who gives a crap this is (was ) the RMS Aquitania... a beautiful lady of the Cunard Line... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bU68CmdIpGk Again, just a wonderful job they did on the video you posted. I mean how much more complete could it have been? Perfection. :) |
This was absolutely incredible to see. Thank you so much for posting. Any racing historian will treasure this. I am still getting over what you found. This is incredible.
