A special parking lot has been provided opposite the track on Russell Avenue.\" (The Press Democrat, 29 July 1939. P. 4, col. 5). The following day, the Press Democrat published the following: \"Santa Rosa’s new $5,000 motordrome will be opened today with an inaugural 100-mile race for Model T Fords...The tracks, on the Di Grazia property a mile and one-half north of the city adjoining the airport, are overlooked by a newly built grandstand with a 3,000 person capacity. Additional accommodations will be available for today’s race fans...A starting field of 17 cars will go to the post for the inaugural, with possible entries to be filed later. . . The race tomorrow marks the start of a series of midget and motorcycle races. The oval, made from adobe land, is said to be lightning fast, dustless and well banked for turning. Parking space has been provided on the Russell avenue side of the new track.\" (Press Democrat, 30 July 30, 1939, Page 6.). In October 1941, the motordrome was renamed the Santa Rosa Speedway and operated through 1960, when construction of the new Highway 101 freeway forced the racetrack to close."},{"label":"DateType-PublicationStatus","value":["s"]},{"label":"Title","value":"Motorcycle racing at Di Grazia Motordrome, Santa Rosa, California, 1939"},{"label":"Date Created or Published (clean) (1)","value":"D:00 M:00 Y:1939"},{"label":"Longitude","value":"-122.724666"},{"label":"Geocoding Status","value":["Approximate geocoding"]},{"label":"Geographic Metadata Source","value":["GNIS"]},{"label":"Maps/StreetView","value":"View location in <a href=\"https://www.google.com/maps/@38.469999,-122.724666,6060m/data=!3m1!1e3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Google Maps</a>"},{"label":"Map Zoom Level","value":["13"]},{"label":"City or Town","value":["Santa Rosa"]},{"label":"Latitude","value":"38.469999"},{"label":"Item Type","value":["Still image"]},{"label":"Street Address","value":"500 Bicentennial Way, Santa Rosa, California"},{"label":"Geographic Feature","value":["Mendocino Avenue","United States Highway 101","Russell Avenue"]},{"label":"Subject (Topical)","value":["Racetracks (Automobile racing)","Motorcycles","Motorcycle racing"]},{"label":"Subject (Corporate Body)","value":["Di Grazia Motordrome (Santa Rosa, Calif.)"]},{"label":"California County","value":["Sonoma"]},{"label":"State or Province","value":["California"]},{"label":"Subject (Time Period)","value":"1939"},{"label":"Country","value":["United States"]},{"label":"Shelving Location of Physical Item(s)","value":"Sonoma County History & Genealogy Library, 211 E Street, Santa Rosa, CA 95401  https://sonomalibrary.org/locations/sonoma-county-history-and-genealogy-library"},{"label":"Creator (Person)","value":["Meacham, Don"]},{"label":"Sort Title","value":"Motorcycle racing at Di Grazia Motordrome, Santa Rosa, California, 1939"},{"label":"Credit line","value":"Courtesy, Sonoma County Library"},{"label":"Item Call Number(s)","value":"ANNEX PHOTO 15923;ARCHIVES PHOTO 15923;ARCHIVES PHOTO 15923"},{"label":"Subject keywords","value":"Sports and Recreation; Di Grazia Motordrome (Santa Rosa, Calif.); 1939; Racetracks (Automobile racing); Motorcycles; Motorcycle racing; United States; California; Sonoma; Santa Rosa; Mendocino Avenue; United States Highway 101; Russell Avenue"},{"label":"Preferred Citation","value":"[Identification of item], Don Meacham photography collection, 1934-1985, SPC.00012.01.015923 (Photo 15923, Sonoma County Library Digital Archives), History and Genealogy Library, Sonoma County Library, Santa Rosa, CA."},{"label":"Collection Guide Name","value":"Don Meacham Photography Collection, 1934-1985 (SPC.00012)"},{"label":"Collection Guide URL","value":"View <a href=\"https://as.sonomalibrary.org/repositories/2/resources/641\">collection guide</a>"},{"label":"Archival Collection Sort Name","value":["Don Meacham Photography Collection, 1934-1985 (SPC.00012)"]},{"label":"Archival Collection Identifier","value":["SPC.00012"]},{"label":"Archival Collection Series","value":["SPC.00012.01.
