This photograph takes us back in time to the bustling Wembley Greyhound track circa 1930. The image showcases the intricate inner workings of the totalisator board, a marvel of engineering that revolutionized betting systems during its era. A male figure, dressed in period attire, can be seen intently inspecting the mechanism with great precision. The totalisator board itself is an awe-inspiring sight; a symphony of gears, levers, and dials meticulously arranged to calculate odds and manage bets. Its complexity is evident as every cog seems to play a crucial role in this grand machine. One cannot help but marvel at the craftsmanship involved in creating such an elaborate contraption. It's fascinating to think that this remarkable piece of equipment came with a hefty price tag of £20,000 back then - a true testament to its significance and value within the industry. This print from Hulton Archive allows us to appreciate not only the technical prowess behind this mechanical wonder but also provides insight into the world of greyhound racing during that era. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an age where technology was advancing rapidly, forever changing how we engage with sports and entertainment. It serves as a reminder of our constant pursuit for innovation and improvement while honoring those who paved the way for modern-day advancements in betting systems.
