1961 Indianapolis 500 -- Item90

Dave Friedman has captured and preserved auto racing history through his photography. His work -- and his collection of works by other photographers -- documents key races, vehicles, drivers, and teams. In 1961, the Indianapolis 500 celebrated the 50th anniversary of its first running. A.J. Foyt prevailed over Eddie Sachs to take the first of his four Indy 500 victories.
