More selections from DQs "unknown owner" photo collection......

As I mentioned in the previous blog, I've these interesting selection of small photographic prints taken, likely during a day visit or perhaps a holiday visit to the Isle of Man during TT time...
I've had interest in Keith Bryen's racing photographs in the previous blogs I've posted; these chronicle his racing career and there are more to come... the next blog we'll continue....
Just to whet your appetite, a pic taken in 1957 in the Moto Guzzi team tent.....
Left click on images to enlarge them....
















Off to the TT prewar and my little photos....
