Description |
Rhoda Agatha Rindge owned a racing car and participated in the annual street racing events held in Santa Monica each year. The race began on San Vivente Blvd, proceeded along Ocean Blvd, and ended up along Wilshire Blvd (8.1 miles total). Not certain if either figure in the car is Rhoda. Jesse Matheson (qv) took a series of photos of a race Rhoda was in in 1911. This may be one of those photos. The recaer appears to have lost its front right tire. Note two figures on left scrambling to safety. |
