Photograph of dirigible race in the Dominguez Air Meet, Dominguez Field,
Los Angeles, 1910. Two football-shaped zeppelins race across the skies,
flying at low altitude. Each of them has single pilots. The pilots
stand on a skeletal structure consisting of metal bars that is attached
to the balloon with wires. Spectators (or judges) stand below on the
plain field watching the zeppelins race. Further in the sky is a balloon
with the phrase “all in the Examiner.”
