Extremely rare 1860's CDV photograph of the most famous jockey in the world, George Fordham in uniform. A rare image in great shape and it is the only image of Fordham we have ever seen! A precursor to the modern baseball card, this is a tremendous piece of sports history that is being offered here for the first time ever!
