AMAZING! - My grandfather’s one-of-a-kind home movies of Italian bicycle racing in New York City in 1930 (1st of 4 parts)... ITALIAN CYCLING PART 1 - UNIONE SPORTIVA ITALIANA - NEW YORK CITY 1930 Friends and family- This home movie (part 1 of 4) of bicycle racing in New York City in 1930 was filmed by my grandfather, William Whitman, Sr. It includes the 1st Interdivision Race at Harlem Speedway in April 1930 (1st place: B. Mirto); the 3rd Interdivision Race in Brooklyn in June 1930 (1st place: Gino Sava); and the Unione Sportiva Italiana (USI) at the Amateur Bicycle League of America (A.B.L. of A.) trials in the Bronx in June 1930 (1st place: Albert Marquet). My grandfather loved to film the USI and Italian bicycle racing in New York City. The slow motion effects were done by my grandfather during filming. The medal at the end was given by the USI to my grandfather. The music is by my daughter, Anna Haas. I hope you enjoy. Please let me know if you recognize anyone, and please share widely... David (NOTE: a few scenes from this movie are also in the previously posted movie, “Italian Bicycle Racing (Unione Sportiva Italiana) New York City - 1930”)
