1949 Photograph of Arthur Kuprion and his daughter Doris who were the photographers in the booth atop the judges stand at the Kentucky Derby. They had one job, to photograph the finish in case it was close and they had to go to a "photo-finish." An exceptional photograph of important innovations in sports photography, people like this were rarely photographed themselves making this exceedingly rare!
