Description: The Kebo Valley Club Race Track is visible behind the newly constructed buildings at the Jackson Lab. Originally the site of Robin Hood Park.
The cars are probably a 1936 Ford and a 1936 Oldsmobile. The building on the left is the Dudley Luther Mayo house. The white building, then the Carroll Building on Main Street in Southwest Harbor, housed Carroll Drug Store and the A&P. The village green is just visible to the right of the building.
