The Grand National 1844.
We found an old drawing of the running of the 5th Grand National in the Illustrated London News dated 1844, there was also text accompyning the picture. We think it is a fantastic piece of English History, drawn and recorded on the spot by a man with pencil and paper 164 years ago. Observe how they spelt chase. We show the original and one we have coloured in on our smoke break.
We do not know who the artist was but he signed it with this
