Photographs made by E. T. Billings of the quarter-mile cement bicycle track and grandstand maintained by the Racine Athletic Association at Racine, Wis., and of the bicycle racers at the starting line, ca. 1897. The 10 photoprints and 1 half-tone reproduction also show the track under construction, a 3-man pacer bicycle, and crowds in the stands. These photographs were collected by Racine historian E. W.
