I was surprised that his heydey was around 1920 as I can remember hearing about him in my childhood which was in the 1930's. Happy PFF!

I had a poster of Man O War in my teenage bedroom...My Dad had taken it and decopaged it to a piece of like MDF stuff and framed it for me....I just loved it! Thanks for the memories! I have read a book about this horse and that groom was with him until the day he died.....Man O War was a fiesty guy and wouldn't let too many people around him, but he loved his groom....have a great weekend!
