GB TRCA TRC-PHO-1-00586 · Item · 1911
Part of Records of Thames Rowing Club

This could, in theory, be a heat of the 1909 Stewards', in which Thames had exactly the same crew as 1911 and also beat Trinity Hall. But it seems more plausible that the club would have purchased a photograph of the final; the size of the crowd is also suggestive of finals day. Additionally, Logan at stroke appears to be looking at the opposition and his eye-line suggests a crew 11/4 length behind (as Trinity Hall were in 1911) rather than 5 lengths or more back (as they were in 1909, when an Easily verdict was recorded).

Not certain that this is von Opel, but it does resemble the other photo of him that we hold.

George V and Queen Mary are rowed down the Henley course in the Royal Barge, by a crew of watermen. An associated note by Tim Wilson records that Dick Phelps identified stroke as Ernie Barry and 3 as Clasper (though unclear which of that family).

Thames Cup VIII
GB TRCA TRC-PHO-1-00496 · Item · 1926
Part of Records of Thames Rowing Club

The identification of this crew as the 1926 Thames Cup VIII is not absolutely certain but the members of the crew appear to correlate with other photos of that year's crew.
