Limited Autographed Card Set
Welcome Fellow Collectors....
The Jockeys and Jeans committee has put together an unprecedented set of over 100 trading cards, with each card containing an original on card autograph. Each participant has autographed 100 trading cards of themselves. Some cards contain more than one autograph. There are special autographed bonus cards added to the set. The set is also a historical set. Never before has a set like this been attempted and a checklist like this is sadly impossible to recreate. Since each jockey, trainer, legend, racing personality or celebrity fan has only signed 100 cards, only 100 sets are available. This monumental project is a fundraiser for the PERMANENTLY DISABLED JOCKEY FUND, who will be the beneficiary of the sales. As of July 9th 2025, I have in my possession card signed by 82 participants. Again......the checklist is a who's who from the racing world. The set should be completed easily by Thanksgiving, so if you're looking for a holiday gift....look no further. The price of this set thru July is $1250. A deposit of $150 will reserve you a set. Balance is due when we are ready to ship holiday time. I have listed over 80 signers below and provided photos of some of the cards and some of the participants signing. I will provide updates and more photos as more signers complete their package. I have been getting messages and emails asking is D.Wayne Lukas part of the set. Mr Lukas signed his 100 cards in his Kentucky barn shortly after the Belmont stakes, so there is a strong possibility this was his last bulk signing. Please read the list slowly and appreciate what we are offering.
If you would like to reserve a set email me at Kennethb1219@aol.com or call 516-729-9663.

About Us
In February 2014, a few ex-jockeys had seen each other on Facebook and thought it would be a good idea to hold a reunion. Most of these riders had not seen each other for over 30 years, but old friendships just never die. Since most of the riders were now in Florida, it was decided to meet at Tampa Bay Downs. From this reunion, a charity event grew spearheaded by former rider Rev. Eddie Donnally and former Kentucky Derby winner Mike Manganello. Other ex-jockeys soon joined the cause and Jockeys and JeansTM concept was born.
The committee has grown to now include Barbara Jo Rubin, the first woman to win in the US, Darrell Brown, a former leading rider at Tampa Bay Downs, Dennis Petrucelli, a former Tampa Bay Downs rider, and Barry Pearl, a former rider from the 60's and 70's. With Reverend Eddie at the helm, Jockeys and JeansTM partnered with the Permanently Disable Jockeys Fund (PDJF) to raise money for the PDJF. Contacts were made with Tampa Bay Downs and soon the first Jockeys and JeansTM event was arranged for March 29, 2014.
With the help of Nancy Lasala from the PDJF, Jockeys and JeansTM had 6 weeks to pull together everything for this one of a kind event. So, boots were pulled on, saddles were polished, whips were checked, and helmets were prepared. The ex-jockeys formed committees, loaded into the starting gate, and they were off.
Now there was some doubt in the racing world that Jockeys and JeansTM would succeed. How could a bunch of under sized over egotistical ex-jocks form a successful charity event? My goodness it would be like herding cats. With a starting working capital of $300.00, donated by our members, the team went to work.
The six undersized, over confident men and woman tackled fund raising, public relations, ticket sales, and bringing in sponsors and donors. And in just six weeks, Jockeys and JeansTM was proud to have raised over $20,000 for the PDJF. After all the hard work and heart felt effort, the Jockeys and Jeans team was proud to help the deserving injured riders who has suffered life changing injuries.
So, the question you may ask is, will Jockeys and JeansTM do this again? What do you think?

What are Jockeys and Jeans Ambassador’s?
Jockeys and Jeans Ambassadors are current and former Jockeys who have played a significant role in the betterment of the industry and advocates for their fellow riders. Our Ambassadors are the first to step up to the plate to help those individuates who have not been as fortunate as they were. Each Ambassador is well respected and a roll model for inexperienced young riders, and will always lend a helping hand. We at Jockeys and Jeans are proud to have these outstanding citizens represent us to the racing community and the world.
What are the role of a Jockeys and Jeans Ambassador?
Jockeys and Jeans Ambassadors represent Jockey and Jeans to racing management, owners and trainers and other jockeys. They are our good will ambassadors and help us in many areas such as; discussions with racing management which will help us secure new and exciting places to hold our event. They will help with securing other outstanding jockeys and our brothers and sisters who have suffered career ending injuries to come and be guest at our events. And last but not least they will help us if possible with our fund raising efforts.
The committee of Jockeys and Jeans believe this position is one of the most important roles in our organization and we take it very seriously. Thank you to our current ambassadors and we welcome our future ambassadors.
