Lorenzet photo from Caddick family collection
|
| Early
picture from track's first season in 1951 featuring many of the track's
operating staff gathered with the track vehicles in the pit area.
Like most pics from the early years, it was taken by Shany
Lorenzet but unfortunately, the picture's quality has deminished over the years (that can happen when it's almost 60 years old!) Anyone with information on the identities of the people you see in this photo, please contact Sid. Thanks to the Brad Caddick for submitting this rare find! |
