    See www.thisdayinaviation.com/tag/curtiss-r-6-racer/ which has a copy of the same photo, attributed to the U.S. Air Force and identified as a Curtiss R-6 Racer. See also en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtiss_CR

    This is Curtiss R-6, Air Service serial number A.S. 68583 (McCook Field project number P-279). This particular aircraft (marked as Race No. 44), piloted by Lt. Lester Maitland (who also appears in the LoC's Bain collection), would finish second in the 1922 National Air Race. First place would be won by Russell Maughan, piloting the other Curtiss R-6 (A.S. 68584; marked Race No. 43). See photo below: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/51240958834/ The aircraft in the background, on the left side of the frame, A.S. 22563, is a Standard J-1 biplane belonging to the Army Air Service.
