1933 Manx - Lightweight Info needed.
The 1933 Manx Junior had 4 Lightweight bikes, of which Ron Harris on a New Imperial was awarded the Lightweight Trophy. It appears that A.R Foster was the only Lightweight not to finish the race.

Can someone with access to a programme tell what machine Bob Foster was riding?

The other two machines were Denis Parkinson on an O.K. Supreme (2nd) and J. Fletcher on a Sunbeam (3rd).

Also does anyone have a photo of the New Imperial that Ron Harris was riding?

The reason for my interest is that my late father's 250 New Imp was one of two Grand Prix bikes built, on 29 August 1933, just one week before the 1933 Manx (5-7 September 1933). It is the first Model 50 Grand Prix built by New Imperial.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
