Helmet insignia
Right here is one to research

Can you say what appeared on the front of these riders helmets (other than flies !) in the days of the pudding basins ?

Geoff Duke
Bob McIntyre
Tom Thorp
Tony Godfrey
Ray Pickrell
John Hartle


When you have answered these, then put forward any others you know.
