Description: Kansas-born Rodger Ward was a P-38 fighter pilot in World War II, then made his name in racing by starring on the budding Southern California sprint car scene. He raced from 1948 - 1966 and he was inducted into the Motorsports Hall of Fame in 1992. This work embodies the post-war era of open wheel racing in the US.
