That's my uncle. He was quite a showman.
I also have the original photo ...plus many others.

Ive got literally thousands of photos scratchman, I wouldn't know where to start. Mostly they are of track riders of the 1950's and 1960's. Sprinters, stayers, pursuiters, sixday teams. Plus my uncles personal collection from his career.
I hope to publish the best of them in a book, my uncles biography, so I don't want to jump the gun by posting them on the net.
I have posted a few in the track photos thread.
Cheers, DD

Now that's a bike book I'd be proud to own.
