Description
Photograph of a panorama of the Santa Anita Race Track in Arcadia, 1938. The crowded grandstand fills the right side of the image as it recedes into the distance. The race track enters the image in the lower left corner, extends into the upper right, and then curves into the center and left backgrounds. At the center of the image, horses run along the dirt track. Many people stand in the grass inside the track, along with the numbered stables. The loudspeaker stands inside the track as well, at the far left of the image. Trees are visible in the left background.
