I came across this photo on eBay. I am sure someone here has seen it before. I didn't see it in the "Vintage Photo" Section of our site. It is a 4"x6" photo they say. So I picked it up.

I have it saved on my computer ,dont know where I got it though.Wished it was a little clearer.

Tom!! It's from the Photo Arhive at the Speedway Museum!!

Thanks guys!

Looks alot like the painting that Chevrolet distributed showing the the pace lap.

Yes both things.. I've always assumed its the picture from the archives and also the picture that artist used for the painting

It's possible this pic may have been considered as a Model for the rather large, true, Oil Painting that Michael Turner ( The Artist )gave to Robert Lund, and from which The Poster came from, however, after going through the Archive, I believe there are at least a handful of other photos even closer to the actual Painting/Poster!!! It's a amazing!!!! ;-)

Check some of Turner's other work out!!!

I'm a big M. Turner fan, have a couple originals of german GP that he painted.Also look at his sons stuff ,Graham Turner Cool auto art!

Maybe this shot was taken from a Press Box of sorts? So more than one shot would exist?

Tom!! There are 100s of similar shots!!! No joke!!!
