5/13/17 Fine Harness World's Grand Champions, 1902 through 1944

Last but not least, the next three posts will feature pictures of as many of the Fine Harness World's Grand Champions that could be found. Unfortunately, this group has the most "holes" in it, and many of the horse pictures are shown under saddle.  However, this is  a beautiful group, and there are many very recognizable names among those listed.  And some of the early names are ridiculous.  Top?
