Scope and content
1. A faded press cutting which contains a caricature of H F V Edwards, Polytechnic Harriers. It is reported in the September 1923 issue of the Polytechnic Magazine that, ‘the great athlete,’ Edwards is leaving for America to take up a business appointment. This would fit in with the press cutting that mentions ‘New York a fortnight ago’ in very faded print. The article lists Edwards' achievements from the 1922-23 A. A. A. Championships. 155x60mm.
2. Daily Mail photograph of P A Selman, Polytechnic Harriers, at the 1922 A.A.A Championship. Selman won the open mile. 245x280mm.
3. A faded press cutting containing a photograph of H M Abrahams, Achilles Club, running at Woolwich in c1924. 82x110mm.
