Appeal for help to solve picture poser

By Chester Chronicle on Dec 10, 08 01:07 PM in

The authors of the forthcoming book When They Were Kings - the Crewe Speedway Story are appealing to Chronicle readers to help solve a picture poser.

The book is due out in May 2009 to coincide with the 40th anniversary of British League speedway at the old Earle Street stadium. It is being compiled by Mark Potts, Tony Marks, Kevin Tew and Andy Scoffin.

But there is a mystery to be solved when it comes to one of the photographs they have of the Kings, who raced from 1969-75.

Mark Potts explains: "We haven't a clue who the man is changing a bulb in the picture. Some speedway books state that it is Alan Corbett but it isn't, as Alan Corbett says so!
"If anyone knows please contact me on 01270 560015 or mark@markpotts.wanadoo.co.uk."

Pre-ordering details for the book will be announced soon.
