 File — Box: 46, Folder: 805

Scope and Contents

Negative no.A805. August 12, 1916. Image depicts a runner participating in a relay race, most likely as part of a "Field Day" organized by the Draper Company for Draper Company employees. The male runner appears to be about to break the string being held across the course at the finish line. No other runners are in sight. Spectators line the side of the course and some men in straw hats with their backs to the camera are on the right (possibly race officials). Founders of the Draper Company, brothers George and Ebenezer were responsible for creating an integrated, planned community with innovative employee housing and recreational spaces and company events, in addition to employment. 5 x 7 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 5, Folder 2, Item 805 for print of this negative.
