Negative taken for February 23, 1960, Arkansas Gazette article "Slow Motion in a Fast-Action Field," B1:3.

Two cameras are trained directly down the finish line to record the position of each horse. This is especially useful in a close horse race. The company which does this work at Oaklawn Jockey Club this year is Confirmation Photos, Inc. Glenn Laird is the president.
