Al Cline and John C. Moore in 1922 Lexington racecar
View of Al Cline and John C. Moore in a 1922 Lexington car no. 6. Frank B. Ansted, president of the Lexington Motors Company holds the Penrose Trophy. "Lexington" wire sign and water tower in background. Label on back: "Frank B. Ansted, president of the Lexington Motor Company, telling Al Cline, at the wheel of number 6, that the Penrose Trophy 'must come back.' The smile on John C. Moore's face, chief engineer for Lexington, seated at Cline's right, indicates that he does not regard the repetition of last year's double victory as too difficult next September 5. Cline was less than six seconds behind his team mate, Ot Loesche, who won the free-for-all event in the Pike's Peak hill climb and the Penrose Trophy." Handwritten on back: "Lexington, 1922."
