Thanks for sharing this treasure, Al. An interesting look back through time, not only at racing, but the free press of the era.

I remember Chitwood's thrill shows in the 60s. There was one I got to see at the Michigan State Fair around 1968-ish. I was eight years old. Does anyone remember if they played up his Native American heritage at those shows? I sure cannot remember. All I remember is cars flying over cars and on two wheels. Seems like they ran with the heritage baton in the 1942 article above.

Once again, thanks for this contribution, Al.
