Richard LeSesne’s black and white photographs were hand-selected from the France Family collection at the NASCAR archives and restored to reveal stunning images of life in Daytona Beach during the early first half of the 20th century. His images beautifully frame the setting of a coastal town with big ambitions and a knack for showmanship. Crowds gather round to get a sneak peak of the new vehicular technology and line up for the races where the fastest cars of the time period rush by eager onlookers.
