These photographs (now the property of The Crystal Palace Foundation) were taken by the Sport and General Press Agency who were located in Fleet Street, London. Sadly many of their archives were destoyed in a 1941 bombing raid.

The original photographs are of typically excellent quality and are of quite large size - 11in (285mm) wide x 10in (260mm) tall.
