STEELE’S PANSIES AT THE SANTA ANITA RACE TRACK 

The sixteenth year of Steele’s pansies on the grounds of the Los Angeles Turf Club at Santa Anita. Mr. Elmer 
Gould, superintendent of grounds, supervised the planting of the pansies which were grown by the West Coast 
Nurseries located at Hawthorne. This photograph was taken in March shortly after the severe freeze suffered 
by Southern California last winter. The Jumbo pansies bloomed continuously from the opening day Decem- 
ber 27, 1948 until they were dug by spectators on the last day of the races by permission of the management.
