The record titles this glass negative "Malcolm Allison - Gliding," but the title comes from unverified data supplied by the Bain News Service, so it may not be reliable. Malcolm Allison, the English football coach, was born in 1927, which is later than most of the Bain agency's work, and the record gives no date. The collection's photographs, largely news pictures, date mainly from the early twentieth century. Gliding was a popular recreation in the 1920s and 1930s, when people flew unpowered aircraft launched by winch or towed by another plane. Readers should treat the subject as an open question and check the Library of Congress catalog for any updates to the caption.
