Description
Photograph of an aerial view of Hollywood Park Racetrack, ca.1950. In the center, a large rectactular building, which serves as a roofed spectators' area, can be seen with thousands of people crowding inside it. To its left, a larger crowd is covering the area along a racetrack the track extends to the left, vertically, from the foreground towards the center and then curves to the left. In front of the building a garden is observable with a large sign on its lawn that says "HOLLYWOOD PARK". A parking lot with several rows of parked automobiles covers the background, the right area, and the right corner of the foreground.
