Barney @ St. Paul

This article in attachment Oldfield at St. Paul Motor Age July 1908 is about a race meet Barney Oldfield participated in in July 1908 at a track in St. Paul, Minnesota. His Arch Rival Ralph De Palma also competed. Oldfield drove a Stearns race car and was part of a group of drivers including another rival, J. Walter Christie. Christie recorded the fastest time but nobody busted the record. The image of Oldfield at the wheel of his Stearns in attachment Oldfield081608 was apparently taken at the July St. Paul meet but was not published by the Indianapolis Star until August 16, 1908.
