This programme belonged to Nurse Mary Adam, and is now in the Liddle Collection at the Brotherton Library in Leeds. It was the key to unlocking the identities of many of those taking part. The programme contains both lists of competitors, names and portraits of the organisers, and a host of advertisements from local businesses.
A digital copy of the programme was purchased using funding from this project, and is available for research purposes on request.
