ABRAHAMS HAROLD: (1899-1978) British Athlete, Olympic Gold Medallist in the 100 metres sprint at the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris. Abrahams was immortalised in the film Chariots of Fire (1981). A.L.S., Harold M. Abrahams, two pages, 8vo, Temple, London, 11th March 1931, to 'Dear Madam'. Abrahams informs his correspondent, in part, 'Tisdall's record is of course better than mine - I was lucky enough to win three events in 1923. Fry's long jump was only ½” short of the world's record when he did it - but the record is now 26ft!! I was most interested to hear that your son was at Repton. Fry of course was a Reptonian too and in 1918 I made a desperate but unsuccessful attempt to beat his school long jump record.' VG Bob Tisdall (1907-2004) Irish Athlete, Gold Medallist in the 400 metre hurdles at the 1932 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. Tisdall, somewhat controversially, also achieved a World Record time in winning the medal, being the first man to complete the race in under 52 seconds. However, as he knocked over the last hurdle his achievement wasn't immediately recognised by the IAAF.C. B. Fry (1872-1956) English Sportsman who represented his country at both Cricket and Football and, in 1893, equalled the world long jump record of 23 feet 6.5 inches.
