EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage photograph captured in 1937, the London Divisional Signals (City of London Signals), Territorials, can be seen rehearsing their display of trick motorcycle riding at Mons Barracks in Aldershot. The group is preparing for the highly anticipated Royal Tournament, scheduled to open at Olympia on May 27th. The image showcases a surreal and humorous moment during the rehearsal as one of the skilled motorcyclists fearlessly rides between another man's legs. This daring stunt can be likened to a modern version of the camel passing through the eye of a needle, showcasing both precision and audacity. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to this twentieth-century snapshot, transporting viewers back to an era between two world wars. Preserved by Europeana photography and Planet News, this press photograph from TopFoto. co. uk captures not only a remarkable feat but also offers a glimpse into the lighter side of military training. While it remains unknown whether this particular image was used for commercial purposes or not, its timeless appeal lies in its ability to evoke laughter and awe simultaneously. As we admire these brave soldiers' skills on their motorcycles, let us appreciate their dedication and sense of humor that shines through even amidst serious preparations for such prestigious events like the Royal Tournament.
