Just A Mix Of Pics - Ray Green Collection

[Roger Dowding]

Good stuff ERC, Ray,
1973 - had started a couple of years before doing speed events in an 848 cc Mini.
Only mods 4.5 inch ( x 10 ) reverse rim Cooper S style wheel made by Dunlop [ same rim and centre ] -centre reversed to make the offset different to go over the drum brakes. Made them look like widened wheels ..
My results were not as good, but huge fun.

I'm trying to catch up on some scanning and using a couple of borrowed non-35mm cameras back in 1965/66 hasn't made scanning easy, despite having different sized negative holders.

For Shelsey August 1965, I not only had an ancient camera from dad's collection, probably an Ilford Ensign, (he'd grabbed the Leica of course), but the film was also 30 year's old, 80mm x 60mm negs.

These pics are unmodified (i.e. not photoshopped), just cropped from the original negatives.

I was always a BRM fan (Dad's patriotic influence) and in 1966, attended the ORMA (Owen Racing Motor Association) awards night in London, heading down from Nottingham on my LE Velocette, staying at Baden Powell House. Using a borrowed camera (with just 10 flash bulbs in my pocket for the weekend) I did manage a few shots.

ORMA Secretary, Molly Wheeler hands the trophy to Graham Hill via Olympian Mary Rand, the first British female to win an Olympic gold medal in track and field. She remains the only Great Britain female athlete to win three medals in a single Games.
