A Training 'Toss' from Alexandra Palace to Major W.H. Osman's 'loft ' in Doughty Street
Listeners will hear the pigeons released at Alexandra Palace and will then be taken to No. 19, Doughty Street, to await their arrival
This evening ten pigeons, the property of Major W.H. Osman, are to be released at Alexandra Palace and they will fly back to their loft in Doughty Street where Major Osman will be waiting to describe their arrival.
Major Osman is editor of The Racing Pigeon, a renowned fancier and pigeon racer, and carries on the celebrated strain that was bred by his father. This strain goes back to the famous pigeon Olympic whose progeny have been so successful that he is known as the Blandford of pigeon racing.
Olympic's grand-daughter 'Doughty Mary' is just back from a 600-mile race from the Shetland Isles. She won first prize in the King's Cross Club's 500-mile race from Thurso in 1934.
