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.

Stutz & Cadillac

This image is of Barney Oldfield in his Stutz racer leading Bill Bramlette in the number 19 Cadillac during the 1914 Cactus Derby Los Angeles to Phoenix off road race. Oldfield went on to win the 696 mile torturous test through undeveloped mountainous and desert terrain.
