HIGH BRED TROTTING HORSES - BROOKHAVEN FARM CATALOGUE - PENNSYLVANIA - 1889

Description

Catalogue – High-Bred Trotting Horses – Brookhaven Stock Farm – 1889
Brookhaven Stock Farm, Upland, Pa., was established by John P. Crozier about 3 years before this catalogue.
Here he presents his breeding stock, headed by stallion Wickliffe 2520 (George Wilkes 519-Patchen Maid).
In a candid introduction he describes rookie mistakes he made at the start and the high standards he now looks for in his stock.
“I saw that the demand is for the best alone; that what every one has to sell nobody wants to buy.”
44 pp., no ills.
Printed in brown.
Lists 1 stallion and 18 mares, all with 4-generation pedigree, description, family, and produce record if any.
Most of the mares are young with little or no racing or produce records, so the quality of their bloodlines is emphasized.
Condition: paperbound, ca. 5 ½ x 6 ½ inches.
Top inch of backstrip torn away; light cover soil; else overall very good and crisp.
