Description
  • Two boys in soap box cars race down a street as a crowd of people watch from the sidewalk. Both boys wear helmets. Visible in the background are spectators, utility poles, dwellings, and trees. On the cracked pavement of the street one horizontal line, and two vertical lines merge in the foreground of the image. It is a sunny day and appears to be summertime.
