One sepia-toned photograph of the start of a balloon race at Ford Airport in Dearborn on October 3, 1925. The photo shows spectators standing in the foreground who are looking at a balloon in the distance that is floating several hundred feet above the ground. An American flag is hanging on the side of the balloon as well as a sign with text that reads "Detroit News Trophy Race." Handwritten pen text on the verso reads "Detroit, 10/3/25."
