Dark Comet
Two photographs from a horse racing track. The top one shows three horses galloping on a dirt track past a scoreboard reading "$2.00 TICKETS PAY." The horse in the lead has a banner reading "1." The bottom photo shows the same horse standing in a grassy area next to a sign reading "NEXT RACE - IT IS NOW," with moveable numbers below the words "NEXT RACE" and a clock below the word "NOW." A jockey is sitting on top of the horse and a man is standing on the ground holding the horse's leash. The caption below the photos reads "DARK COMET - N. FODEN, UP. J. Hamilton, Owner - Trainer, Thorncliffe Parkk, Toronto - Canada, Sept. 6th, 1941."
