As supplied to Barry for a quiz by Bill Snelling
Is it Richard Swallow, Lightweight Manx GP exiting Governors Dip, early '70s?
If that's a white rose on the front of the hat, Brian, you're probably right.

In fact, you are right - it's Richard's Newcomer year in 1972.

Aged 19, apprentice joiner.

Nice lad he was - R.I.P., Richard.
Well done lads. Couldn't resist posting that one, courtesy of Bill who gave me it for a quiz a while ago. A very early shot of a fine rider who went on to achieve great things on the TT course.

Now, what year did they remove that post box? Hmmm..
