Not so often you see an 'action photo' of this age featuring regular blokes riding around. This chap larking on his Royal Enfield had the decency to label the back of his pictures so we know that it was taken in 1934. The location is also written down though a little unclear but through the wonders of the interweb it narrowed down to Bereton Road in Rugeley, Stafforshire.
By strange coincidence I put one of these photos up on the Facebook feed before posting here on the blog and Laurent from France of
Twist Grip blog got in touch to say that he has different pictures of the same machine in the same location and that the bike is a Model T 150cc. Small world!

Do you think the two near-identical images were meant for stereopticon viewing?
ReplyDeleteI see where you are coming from but my gut feeling is that they just got a little snap happy!
