| Comments: | Comment from John Fahey: I purchased this postcard from the Al and Jean Otto Novelty Stand at the Flemington Speedway in the early 60's. It shows the novice division on the homestretch. I remember #98 as Frank Shepherd and #16 as Joe Csolak. The man on the starter's stand is Steve Levitts, who for many years operated the track lights. Notice the roof of the grandstand before the announcer's booth, as the action was called by Nat Kleinfield in the Pagoda inside the homestretch. Also this was taken before the 4th turn bleachers were built. The packed grandstand sure brings back a lot of memories of the "glory days" of Flemington. John Fahey |

| 07/05/03 | Kevin B. | To some of us this could be a postcard from racing heaven! |

THEY WERE FLYING CHARLIE CREAGER AND HAROLD SCOTT PUT ON THE SHOW SIDEWAYS TOGETHER IN THE TURNS LAP AFTER LAP , WITH CHARLIE WINNING THE EVENT. I STILL HAVE THE POSTCARD SENT TO MY DAD. |
| 06/17/07 | Sharon (Csolak) LaPage | The best time frame I can come up with for this picture, by comparing the #16 of Joe Csolak with the other pictures I have of him in my scrapbook, is that this picture was taken in 1965 between May and September. |
| 04/12/08 | Frank Beifus | That's so wild, When i first saw this picture (before reading the information underneath) I remember buying the very same post card at Ringos train ride on my 3rd grade class trip in 68 or 69 |
