Yet another record attendance, but not at Dens on this occasion but actually at a local Junior match.
14,000 crammed into Glenesk Park for the Harp v Dunipace match in February 1934.

This photo of a milestone in Lochee High Street was snapped in August 1950.
It was being pointed out that it was in the wrong location. It has on it, Coupar 1 mile and Meigle 11 miles. The thing had been in Lochee for over 70 years at the time! I'd have thought it would be pretty easy to calculate on a map, using these distances, where it belongs. |
Painting the Rail Bridge in March 1934 looks a bit hazardous, especially seeing the workers without any safety gear.
Yet they even manage to keep their bonnets on!

This job also looks a bit dodgy with their homemade equipment and without any safety gear.
Although, not such a big splash if they fell in!
