Clipping on the back, Nov. 11, 1946- "Auggy Pedlar just before he stepped into the Miss Doran. About his neck, a flower wreath with the ironical words 'Good Luck!'" Photo shows Pedlar wearing a plaid jacket and plaid trousers with a flower wreath around his neck. He is holding a cigarette in his right hand and appears to not be terribly happy. In the background is the "Miss Doran" with the Lincoln Oils symbol on the side. See H96.1.1864 for information on the Dole Race and on the "Miss Doran."
