Please note; images placed temporarily and will be removed.
This will stay active a bit longer than usual.
Haven't done this for a while.
Please keep in mind that I DO NOT have the answers for these locations, rather I'm looking for help.
Frisco Adams (Jimmy Cruise) location unkwn 1945 (likely and Indiana location, was accompanied by photo's of Osgood and Shelbyville.
Frisco Reno (Paul Hungerford) location unkwn. Note; Just scanned a photo of this location a few months ago [recall being fascinated with how close the tents were to the grandstand], unfortunately don't recall what publication date or any other info to locate it.
Frisky Fellow (Roy Line; not sure this Roy, however have multiple references to he and horse?)
Frost Ridge (Frank Ervin) at ??. (That sign in the back makes this photo unique and I've a similar photo of the location that I was unable to locate as well.
Fuzzydale (Mark Kyler) 1937-38
G. -3
Enjoy.
BTW, last week I began scanning a large quantity of harness racing negatives. It will take some time and I've put my magazine scanning on the backshelf for this priority project.

That Fuzzydale pic is cool, with the acrobatic stuff in the background. thumbsup
I think one of them looks like Syracuse to me-the one with the moveable wooden hubrail. Not certain, but it looks familiar.

Many thanks Gary.
239 is a farm.
297 is a small fair or (at that time) former fair.
I've some nice pics of Syracuse, which offered some very distinctive pavilions in the backstretch of the early days.
None of these look like early-Syracuse to me, but HELL I could be in error (I'm never wrong).

I'm sure you are probably right, I just seem to remember Syracuse having those moveable hubrail thingys...but remember_ I have a brain injury. Could be anywhere else I've been to.

Gary,
As explained I've two of these pics (at least their surroundings) in other pics, just unable to locate them.
Not sure what category that puts me in ;)

FWIW, I was able to ID this earlier location as Shelbyville, IND.
These freaking photographers from HH mag were jumping all over the damned place and taking pics from every feasible corner of the track, although most of them were never published.
I've so many different angles of the various Indiana tracks that's it's been quite difficult to find a focus point that I could use as a reference in labeling locations that were not ID'd in the negatives.
