This is a photograph of the Livingston County Fairgrounds, Howell, Michigan. The fairgrounds were formerly in the northeast section of the city of Howell where Catrell Drive is now located. The fair is going on and in view are the horse racetrack, the speaker stand, the grandstand, and in front of that the Motor Drome. The date of the photograph is unknown.
The motor drome a silo-shaped wooden cylinder and its interior, 90-degree wooden wall serves as a track. Spectators stand on a platform that surrounds the top of the cylinder, and watch as the daredevils ride around the wall and perform tricks.
