This is the Dayton-Wright RB-1 Racer, built to compete in the 1920 Gordon Bennett Cup (like the Verville-Packard R-1 Racer also in the most recent posting of Bain photos). It is still extant as an exhibit at the Henry Ford Museum. See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dayton-Wright_Racer

"Dismantled and shipped to France, the RB-1 was flown by Howard Rinehart in the 28 September 1920 race, but was forced to withdraw after a cable failure prevented full retraction of the gear/flap mechanism,"

"Mrs. D.J. Mahoney" is Helen Harding Cox Mahoney (1896-1921), daughter of former Ohio governor and 1920 Democratic Party presidential nominee, James M. Cox. She is shaking hands with aviator Howard Rinehart, one of the Dayton-Wright RB-1 co-designers. (As mentioned in the note above, he is the "R" in the "RB-1" model designation. The "B" is co-designer Milton C. Baumann.) Helen Cox was married to Daniel J. Mahoney (1889-1963), general manager for one of the newspapers owned by her father. Her father's business would eventually become today's Cox Communications. Sadly, she would pass away the following year at the age of 25, after suffering from a bout of pneumonia.

Pretty obviously retouched--perhaps he was photographed in his previous team's uniform? The visor of his cap looks to be original, judging from the shadow it casts.

@splaestro this photo was not retouched. It was taken in a era when real life and the illustrated one collided. It is best evidenced by a certain period piece by the name of "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" In this documentary the two worlds collide for what some call 'High Hilarity'
splaestro said:
@deneyterrio: Wow, that's deep.

I believe the photo was taken when he played New Bedford (New England) team. Before being traded to Detroit.
