DescriptionAn aerial view of Albuquerque Sports Stadium in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The stands are crowded with people as a baseball game takes place on the field. Cars are parked behind the lawn beyond the outfield wall and in parking lots near the left and top of the frame. A typed caption on the photograph reads, "FIRST DRIVE-IN BASEBALL STADIUM -- Albuquerque's Sports Stadium is the first drive-in baseball stadium in the country on a professional level. In this aerial photograph of the stadium, taken during a recent game, more than 90 cars are shown at right ringing the terrace above the stadium."
