Not published in LIFE. Early birds sleep at the track so they can be first in line at the grandstand admission windows when gates open on Derby morning.
In 1955, photographer John Dominis covered the Kentucky Derby for LIFE. See the photos here.

“Health and Virility for men and women of all ages” that’s the promise of the book “Eat Your Troubles Away” (1955) by Lelord Kordel courtesy of wackystuff on Flickr. via impaledsiilence. I do not think that word means what you think it means…
Virility refers to any of a wide range of masculine characteristics viewed positively. It is not applicable to women or to negative characteristics.
