Default FREE lawn jockey statue if you live in NE Ohio
I am planning a long-distance move, and have a very nice lawn jockey that I can't take with me. It was completely stripped and repainted in 2012 with all-weather paint. Nice addition to your back yard, although I currently have it in my living room, and it looks great indoors too!

E-mail me at Hoblin@twc.com, and I can send you photos. You can also see photos on the Craigslist site for Cleveland, if you search for "lawn jockey". I have it listed for $90 on Craigslist, but just let me know that you saw this on the DerbyTrail forum, and it's yours for free. I would rather have it go to a good home than have to set it by the dumpster on moving day.

I'm in Beachwood.

She should marry the statue and put Doug in a dumpster.

THAT would be perfect!

I live just north of Pittsburgh and would be interested if Steve doesn't work something out with you. Let me know.

Whoa, Dougie got hitched?
I wonder if the ceremony is going to be at Presque Isle and if RHT made the cut as the best man.

Lol. I would not deface the statue. I've been looking for one for a while.....the only jockeys I have found have been, shall I say, ethnically insensitive.

Speaking of ethnic insensitivity, Breyer just released a picture of the American Pharoah Christmas ornament.

Apparently, Victor Espinoza was replaced by Gary Stevens.

The statue was adopted this morning by a loving family in western Pennsylvania. If it does end up with black and gold silks, I will tell myself that it's in honor of Seattle Slew, and not the dreaded Steelers
