I put this together myself in my home town when the musical ride came on July 23rd - 2025.
The frame work was signed by all the riders and horses names included of that days performance in our local arena. The riders didn't realize they were the 50 year anniversary riders of the $50 bill and the Dome position was included in there performance and acknowledging the position . I was inspired by an article I read from 2020 that the bank of Canada did a search of the original riders taken on a lake by Sudbury Ontario in 1970 that's on the 1975 bill. Few were still living at the time. When I heard they were coming to me I prepared this as a auction item for my local hospital fund raise coming on April 11th - 2026. The funds are %100 going to a CT scanner for our local hospital. Our hospital is also 100 year anniversary this year too. There has been a lot of interest in this item already.

That banknote is a favorite of collectors. I finally got one last year.

The stables for the horses are very close to where I live, and sometimes in my walks I have seen the riders out with their horses.

Good luck with the auction.
