Additional Details:
Front depicts racing cars and gives speed records for the "Measured Mile" race course at Daytona Beach. Back: Stretching for 20 miles along the ocean, this silver beach known as Nature's speedway is famous the world over as the home of high speed. Speed history has been made here by such famous men as Campbell, Seagrave, Lockhart, De Palma and Oldfield. "Bluebird V", driven by Sir Malcolm Campbell, attained the high record of 276 miles per hour in 1936. What a thrill to the present day motorist to open the throttle and roar over the measured mile.
