Photo Gallery: Allen R. Kuhn, 1955-56

January 24, 2022 By pete

Paramount Ranch, November 18, 1956.

Story and photos by Allen R. Kuhn

The Editor has been so kind as to let me post a few images that are the most memorable, to me, from my early years as a photographer and sports car aficionado. Many have never been published before. We both agreed that the lead photo above exemplified what sports car racing in the 1950s was all about. Front row, is #59 Bob Oker, AC Ace Bristol, #2 Dan Gurney, Porsche 356 Speedster, and #131 Jim Parkinson (# not shown), Austin-Healey 100S. Oker won the race with Parkinson third and Gurney being a DNF with clutch problems.
