Description
Photograph of women holding dogs at start of race, ca.1930. A line of five young women with short hairdos and wearing knee length skirts kneel behind a white line that runs diagonally through the bottom of the image. The women hold their dogs, that look like miniature greyhounds, behind the starting line. A man in the right background stands behind the women while holding up a gun with his right hand. In the background, a crowd of people is gathered behind the starting line.
