It was very nice, but not all-together truthful...some footage, but if you want to do a project & get photos from "The Graw", email MJC !!! Is that Challedon in the picture above ? You don't say....

there is a site on Narragansett Park Racetrack in Pawtucket, RI on Colin's Ghost.com...please check it out : )

@lorason61 who is mjc? I was asked to put together a video for the "graw festival" in havre de grace by a friend of mine on the committee. they handed me some postcards and a horrible audio tape of some people who left their recorded memories. the tape was so bad I redid most of the voices (the guys are all me) there was one reel of graw footage that turned out nice but didn't have enough variety to complete the project. the 100 year anniversary is coming up next year

I noticed you used footage from National Velvet & Seabiscuit for this......and a post card from Narragansett Park, RI

@lorason61 yes, I hope you arent the copyright holder on that. I did an "andy warhol" and manipulated the footage to fill in blanks on this freebie project. you have a sharp eye to pick this out

Maryland Jockey Club. It would be nice to visit Sagamore Farm in Glydon, MD to get more of a grasp of who raced at HDG

Well done. I cannot believe you were able to find all this footage.
