He began exhibiting at the Royal Academy in 1907 and showed there seventeen times up to 1960. Haseltine developed a reputation as an animalier and creator of equestrian portraits.
In 1924 the Field Museum in Chicago presented a series of Haseltine's animal sculptures made since 1921, the display was accompanied by a pamphlet entitled 'Champion Domestic Animals of Great Britain' (see http://www.archive.org/stream/sculpturesbyherb13field#page/n9/mode/2up accessed 23 May 2013). There are 69 works by Haseltine listed in the SIRIS Art Inventories Catalog of the Smithsonian American Art Museum (see http://siris-artinventories.si.edu) and there is a microfilm of some archival material in the Archives of American Art (http://www.aaa.si.edu/search?q=herbert+haseltine).
