Sportsman's Raceway - Jerry Seamans Collection

We've received these photos from Jerry Seamans. Jerry writes: "My older brother (Richard Seamans) and nephew (Randy Fay) were both very much into dirt track racing in the mid/late 1960's, building and racing cars at Mills Sportsman's Raceway, Hornell Raceway, and Woodhull Raceway. I have been enjoying the Allegany History website very much, especially the Racing History section. It brings back many fond memories of my childhood as I was 10-15 years old at that time."
