Barney Oldfield Images

Images from Barney Oldfield's racing career. Many of these are items collected from photocopies of newspapers preserved on microfilm. Many of the original photos have been lost to the ages, so some of these images rescued in this manner may be all that remains. While the quality is inferior by today's standards, they still provide interesting information about Oldfield and the events he participated in.

This is the back of an historic photo taken May 27, 1916 of driver is Barney Oldfield who apparently was driving a car that was already considered an antique even in those early days. The significance of showing this image is to provide evidence of the date it was taken. This was probably some kind of commemorative event looking back at earlier generation auto technology.
