1949 was the time …..

the place……… Gilmore Stadium !!

This Gilmore Stadium poster is great. Gilmore Stadium was a multi-purpose stadium in Los Angeles, California. It opened in May 1934 and demolished in 1952. The stadium was built by Earl Gilmore, son of Arthur F. Gilmore and president of A. F. Gilmore Oil, a California-based petroleum company which was developed after Arthur struck oil on the family property.

Midget car racing was invented at the track. The track hosted midget car racing from the track’s debut in May 1934 to 1950.The 1939  Turkey Night Grand Prix was held at the track.

Notable drivers that raced at the track include Danny Bakes, Bill Betteridge, Fred Friday, Perry Grimm, Sam Hanks, Curly Mills, Danny Oakes, Roy Russing, Bob Swanson, Bill Vukovich, Rodger Ward, and Karl Young.
