This color postcard photo provides an elevated view over the Matanuska Valley Fairground racetracks showing portions of the horse racing track in immediate foreground and a smaller track inside. Numerous people occupy bleachers in foreground. Beyond the track in middle ground numerous cars of fair attendees are parked. In middle ground beyond the cars numerous city business district buildings are apparent. A narrow band of green timberland appears behind the buildings with purple Talkeetna Mountains in the far background. Printed in red letters near the top of the image over white clouds in the blue sky is "Greetings From The Matanuska Valley". At extreme right foreground a light green Quonset hut is partially visible. The same building appears in photo "Fair@33x-Est", indicating the two images seen together may give an expanded view.
