Earl Kiser Portrait

Earl Kiser was one of America's early professional auto racing drivers and a chief rival to his much more well-known contemporary, Barney Oldfield. Kiser succeeded Oldfield on Alexander Winton's Bullet II race car when Barney and Winton had a falling out. Kiser was also a colleague of Indianapolis Motor Speedway founder Carl Fisher.

This is a package of two articles on a June 2 & 3, 1905 race meet on the Milwaukee mile. The big attraction was the attendance of Barney Oldfield, America's star of auto racing at the time. The first article appeared in Motor Age, the second in Horseless Age.
