Shots from behind the scenes at racetracks have long been a favourite of mine. This old photo from the 1950's was taken in the Roosevelt driver's room where the horsemen changed from street clothes into their silks and racing attire. As today it was also a place to visit and catch up on the latest happenings. Pictured here (from L-R) Driver Eddie Cobb, Race Secretary Glenn Gibbons, Billie Bird and driver Franklin Safford.
