Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- The Robert Canaan Photograph Collection includes 6000 black and white images taken by motor sports photographer Robert Canaan from 1949 through 1955. Canaan’s photographs of the California sports car racing and hot rod scenes were often published in the period enthusiasts’ journals such as Road and Track and Hop Up. Canaan was an employee of Kurtis Kraft, knew Frank Kurtis, and shot many of the cars as they were being assembled. This collection features candid shots of California associated drivers like Ken Miles and Phil Hill, when they were beginning their careers in the early 1950s.
