For those perspicacious to notice the image is reversed left to right
and the photographer was not Delmonico (I think that is a cut of meat
or a upscale restaurant!)
The person generally credited with "inventing" the photofinish camera
(which existed before but had not been applied to racetrack
applications) was Lorenzo DelRiccio. And the track where it was
introduced was Del Mar and not Santa Anita! However, the whole thing
was the subject of much litigation as several people in the late 1930s
claimed ownership of the idea.
So Marilyn you think you made flubs? You did not but I sure did! ;)

If you go to the site the link below takes you to, you can view two
videos of Andy. He does a great job of explaining some of his
work. The first part of the interview is just below the Brian
Golden (a local sports writer) interview. The link to the second
part of Andy’s interview is just below and to the left of the
“Thanksgiving Sale” image/video and there should be a third part,
soon.
