Over the years I've collected small photos...what do I mean by that...well the size that came from Kodak box Brownies etc, around 30 x 40mm, perhaps 45 x 60mm, often sepia toned.
Who took them or "owns" them is a mystery.....although on reflection the last two were taken by Ulsterman Barry Sewell and others of his pics feature elsewhere in my blog.
Left click on the images to enlarge....

on the unknown could #15 be cw johnson on a cotton? during the 1926 tt
Hello
I found your blog whilst researching my grandfather, George Himing, sometime Zenith racer who appears on your site along with my grandmother, Mary Himing. They are the couple at the top of your gallery. The other image I recognise from our archive of him racing during the 1926 TT, but cannot verify which rider is him.
Best wishes
Mary
