Centaur Commer Greyhound Greyhounds Stadium Stadiums Wembley


EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the excitement and innovation of the greyhound racing scene in the 1930s, as a proud and powerful Greyhound emerges from a Commer Centaur car at the iconic Wembley Stadium. The Commer Centaur, with its well-sprung chassis, was a popular choice for transporting Greyhounds during this era due to its added comfort and reliability. The Greyhounds, with their sleek bodies and focused expressions, are ready to take on the track, while their handlers and spectators look on with anticipation. The image transports us back in time to an era when automobiles were revolutionizing transportation and the sport of Greyhound racing was at the height of its popularity. The Commer Centaur, with its distinctive design and robust engine, was a symbol of progress and modernity, making it an ideal vehicle for transporting the esteemed Greyhounds to the stadium. The photograph also highlights the historical significance of Wembley Stadium, which has been a prominent venue for Greyhound racing since the 1920s. The grandstands, adorned with banners and pennants, are filled with eager spectators, creating an electric atmosphere. The image is a testament to the rich history of Greyhound racing and the important role that transportation played in bringing the sport to life. This photograph is a unique and fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of Greyhound racing in the 1930s and the innovative ways in which the animals were transported to the track. It is a must-have for any collection of historical sports photography or Greyhound racing memorabilia.
