A series of 6 photos shot at Legion Ascot Speedway at the end of the 1930 Pacific Southwest Season for client Dayton Manufacturing Company ordered by Nelson Price of The Weinberg Agency from Dick Whittington Studios. by Dayton Manufacturing Co.
The Dick Whittington Studios was the premiere commercial photography company in the Los Angeles area in the 20s through 40s.
Shared by Michael Ferner - unknown source that seems to match this promotional photo shoot:
"Francis Quinn, who today receives the beautiful Dick Dodd's (sic! ) Trophy symbolic of the 1930 Pacific Southwest Championship, needs no introduction to the race fans of the Legion Ascot Speedway. He has long been one of the most colorful and spectacular drivers on California tracks and has won himself a host of admirers. Always a clean sportsman and ever willing to give the other fellow a break he typifies all that is clean and fine in the great international sport of automobile racing. At the beginning of the season he had a lot of luck, and it was all bad, but he quickly over rode his many difficulties, and once started, swept on to the Championship. Francis plans on even a greater year in 1931, and for some time has been building a new race car which he expects to have finished and on the track some time in February, with this new car he feels justified in hoping to win the title two years in succession. He will also receive today the beautiful Carrol Photo Service Trophy, which is awarded to the driver, who, with his pit crew, makes the neatest appearance throughout the year. The winning of this trophy is very commendable and bespeaks the characteristics of a champion. (Additionally, Quinn's #8 Dayton Thorobred Special won second place, both in points and in the Frank Verbeck Trophy for best appearing cars)."
1930 A.A.A. Pacific Southwest Champion Francis Quinn is at Legion Ascot to unveil his new Miller Marine racecar.
Joining him is teammate Walt May who will drive the 1930 team car - Dayton Thorobred Special in the upcoming 1931 season.
Joining them is actress Betty Brown bottle in hand to provide the proper christening.
Quinn went on to a stellar season always fighting for another championship with the best in the business but unfortunately perishing in a traffic accident in December.
Walt May had moments of brilliance in the old Thorobred Special but was involved in an accident at San Jose May 21, 1931 and succumbed to his injuries June 23rd.
Betty Brown was very representative of many of the fading actresses that appeared at the popular Legion Ascot Speedway - who were pushed into any available spotlight by their agents, always hoping for a revival of popularity. Within a few months she would be divorced from her hard drinking, womanizing, riotous husband Ted Healy; her best years were in the silent movies and the best she could do in the talkies was playing the part of character actress in three stooges and Oliver and Hardy comedies. She passed away in Victorville CA in 1975.

The photo shoot with Nancy Carroll and Earl Devore and his racecar at the close by Culver City Boardtrack was paid for by The Music Box Theater which had just changed its focus from offering 'revues' (in the Ziegfeld style) in the auditorium and dancing and illicit drinking upstairs in the open air cabaret space to one of offering legitimate, big time theater. Clark Gable and Nancy Carroll were headliners in the opening of the West Coast Premier of the play, Chicago. Nancy was sent over to the track with local Whittington Studio photographers to get some shots that could be used in promoting the opening of the play. Looks like Earl and the boys were only too willing to be a part of this.
