Abstract

The Official Score Card for the Wednesday, October 3, 1934 Shapleigh & Acton Fair staged at Union Park in Union, Maine by the Union Park Trotting Association. The program includes the name of the Association Secretary, Fred E. Young and Starting Judge, M. I. Collins of Gorham, Maine. Display ads inside the program include products from refrigerators to clothing for businesses located predominantly in Sanford, Maine.

The score card includes Guy Kendall's handwritten notes about changes in the field and race results. Kendall notes that Golden Hedgewood set new track record in the 2.12 Class Race with a time of 2.09 3/4. That new record was broken later in the day by Blushing Beauty who ran a 2.08 1/2 Exhibition Mile.
