Following on from my last post, below, let's look at some more negatives that I scanned in recently and taken at the IOM TT races in 1975 by me....
Helmut Dahne, R90S BMW, Open Classic TT practice....
Interesting shot...don't know who the rider was...in practice...at Ramsay...
#52, Steve Tonkin, 347cc McVeigh Yamaha during the Classic TT practice...
#7, Aussie Jack Findlay on the 830cc Norton during the Open Classic TT practice...
#45, Aussie "Jolly Jack"...Jack Ahearn, a veteran TT rider of so many years.....Junior Yamaha..
#81, Hugh Evans and Ken Huggett's 898cc R90S BMW entry in practice for the 1000cc Production Machine class....
#76, Martin Sharpe and John Cowie shared this BMW in the U/L production machine class....
Didn't catch the machine/rider details of the BMW during practice...at Ramsay....
Unsure about this Velocette entry...I would say the rider is Danny Shimmin from the name on his leathers and the Manx emblem on his helmet...
Can't place this entry, possibly in the Open Classic TT...
#10, Dave Croxford, 830cc Norton in Open Classic TT practice...
#70, possibly John Holmes, Rea Yamaha and #14...unsure who....
#36, BMW...can't place this entry from my program....
Another Manx ferry brings in spectators for the races....

Are those posted prices for the crossing?? 3p for an adult and 1p for kids?

I would suggest they were to allow people onto the wharf who weren't actually traveling by ship, rather seeing somebody off or meeting them, rather like the old platform tickets they would sell at railway stations. They did it here in Sydney and back in the 1960's or so they were 10p from memory.....
