Photograph of Ebe Shaw holding the tape at the end of the racing field during the Trailer Coach Association of California's rally in Ventura. Spectators sit in the foreground at right and face left. They sit in a row that stretches back towards the left. In the near distance, left-of-center, Ebe Shaw stands in profile, facing left. He holds the tape for the racing end line. The tape extends out-of-frame at left. A man (partial view), in front of Ebe Shaw, kneels on the ground along the left edge. The park's grounds extend into the distance. Palm trees line the back edge of the park in the background.
