I have a few oldies myself.

Here is the similar pic I had in mind. I guess I only had one but thought I had two. I'm pretty sure it's the same track, with the same hill & fence in the background.

Miss do you know the name of the track where this pic was taken?

I don't but would also like to know. Maybe someone on the forum recognizes it.

It's the betting windows at Good Time Park.

There are a few similar photo's in the Time-Life archives.

Good Time Park

aka Fiddler's Green.

The last year of the Hambo at Goshen was 1956 (same year Bill Cane and Al Saunders died).
