Another comic that I never set eyes upon (I am currently 64 yrs old)
My interest in comics was in the American Marvel Comics.
Fantastic Four, Thor, Spiderman etc
1930
Speedway Stars
Card 1 Australian Vic Huxley
Card 2 British Arthur Franklin
The N.U.T. machines referred to on the above
card took the NUT name from Newcastle Upon Tyne where they were
made.
Card 3 Scottish Drew McQueen
Card 4 British Eric Langton
Eric's first choice bike was a Rudge with a
Douglas as a backup.
Card 5 British AW
(Arthur) Jervis
Card 6 British Ivor Creek
Card 7 British Billy Dallison
Card 8 Australian Ron Johnson
Card 9 British Johnny Broughton
Card 10 British Arthur Frogley
Card 11 British Sid Jackson
Card 12 British Tommy Price
This Tommy Price had a namesake who rode in
the south mainly for Wembley. The two Tommy Prices are often
confused. The Lancashire Tommy Price shown above was not as
successful as his southern counterpart. I tell them apart by
their ears! Wembley's Tommy Price had big ears whereas Lancs Tommy
did not have big lugs!
