Crystal Palace - Help Wanted


norbold

Recommended Posts

I am currently finishing off my next book on the history of Crystal Palace speedway - due to be published later this year. However I am still looking for information on the period 1936 - 1940 and would be interested to hear from anyone who has any results of the 1936-1938 bank holiday open meetings and/or the results of the two meetings held in 1940. Does anyone have programmes from these events?

 

More specifically I am looking for photographs of the Crystal Palace team in 1932 and 1939 and any of individual riders in CP colours from the 1939 team. Also the heat details from the Middlesbrough v. Crystal Palace meeting held on 12 May 1939.

 

Any help would be much appreciated and could even lead to complimentary copies.....

Although no-one has replied to this topic on the Forum I would like to thank all those who have contacted me either by email, phone or PM and provided most of the information I needed. I've still got one very interesting lead to follow up and then I think I can get the book off to the publishers. It should be out later this year. :)

Hi norbold - sounds good...

Tell me, and I know I SHOULD be up to speed on all your publshed works(!), but aside from the section in your seminal history of London tracks, have you written a book covering Lea Bridge yet..?

I want to talk to you about a museum project in the Millfields area.

I shall PM ya!!
