Description
Photograph of a racetrack, from the spectators' view, possibly at Hollywood Park Racetrack, ca.1930. A group of people are visible on an higher elevated area in the foreground, sitting in small cubicles that each include a table and chairs, well-dressed and looking towards the racetrack in the background. A larger crowd of people is standing tightly together in the center area, on a lower ground and along the track
on the racetrack a group of riders with their respective horses seem to be in a running position. Towards the left, a rail is visible across the track. In the background, a large field and hills are observable.
