    Mount Diablo is a hill in the Concord area of San Francisco. Possibly a Model A run to
    Mt. Diablo?

    The blue one seems pretty obvious. The world's fair was held on Treasure Island (in the S.F. Bay Area) in 1939. Not long after that it became a Naval base.

    Website for the Diablo A's Model A club: https://www.diabloas.com You could contact them and see if they have any information in their archives about the 5th anniversary tour back in 1972.
