Frosted glass with a bright multicolor design in red, blue, yellow, and green. The front reads: "Kentucky Derby 117, May 4, 1991, Churchill Downs, Louisville, KY." The back lists all past winners since 1875, with 1991 left blank. One piece available.

Harry M. Stevens Inc. was the oldest concession business in the United States, family-owned for over five generations, having serviced Yankee Stadium, Giants Stadium, Churchill Downs, Madison Square Garden, Fenway Park, Candlestick Park, and the Houston Astrodome. They had been making Kentucky Derby glasses since 1875, and this is a late-era Stevens glass, manufactured in Cranbury, NJ shortly before Aramark acquired the company in December 1994.

A meaningful piece for a Kentucky Derby collector, a horse racing enthusiast, or a Father's Day gift for the dad who never misses the run for the roses.
