SC Rewind: Picture Parade

SC Rewind: Picture Parade
Published: November 30, 2024 11:36 am EST

For this week's Rewind Robert Smith offers up the monthly edition of Picture Parade, a regular feature that displays old photos for your viewing and perhaps guessing pleasure.  

This time around as usual a central theme exists and all of today's "oldies" feature people that might all be truly classified as being "senior citizens." I know that term does not get used too often but these folks because of their long years of faithful service give them this badge of honour.  This list is an all Canadian-born cast but many of them often raced in the U.S. All have passed and if still with us would be over 100 years old.

Anyone care to venture a guess as to where this old photo was taken?  Clue: This Ontario track is still hosting harness racing and has been for a very long time.  Check out the infield!
