Hayward Field Tribute - Curtis Reed Photography
 Celebrating the mecca of the American Track & Field scene - Hayward Field, on the campus of the University of Oregon! In constant use since a cinder track was laid down in 1921, many features of the legendary stadium remain unchanged today from the time of record-setting, miraculous moments of the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, and beyond. This spectacular poster features a panoramic view of the scene during the 2007 Prefontaine Classic, the annual high-profile meet that brings America's best to Eugene, as a peloton of runners passes in the foreground, and a high-jumper angles mid-air in a perfect Fosbury Flop. Below the image is a closeup of the famous Hayward Field scoreboard, and a listing of noteable moments from throughout the field's history. From Ralph Hill's U.S. record-setting Mile in 1930, to Roscoe Cook's world record in the 100-yard dash in 1959, to Steve Prefontaine's four record-setting runs in the 5000m in the early 1970s, to the 1976 and 1980 U.S. Olympic Trials, it's all here, and more! A beautiful tribute to a spectacular venue - a must for the wall of any Track & Field athlete or fan. Poster Specifications:
