1912 Sweeping and artistic photograph of early racing champion Harvey Herrick (he was listed as the World Champion at the time as he had won several races leading up to this photo) as he appeared on the snow covered track at the Indianapolis Speedway in preparation for the second ever Indianapolis 500! One of the earliest images related to the most iconic race in the world, this presents beautifully with a date stamp on the back and a crystal clear image. The photo has a crease from editorial use but overall it looks really great!
