Le Jamais Contente, literally “The Never Satisfied”—an electric vehicle and the world’s first road vehicle to go over 100 kilometers per hour. The feat was accomplished by the fearless Belgian driver Camille Jenatzy. The date: April 29, 1899.

Rather than thin masts and billowing sheets of white, the Buckau had two huge cylinders that rose from its deck and spun. By a physical phenomenon called the Magnus Effect, the spinning poles generated a propulsive force that carried the ship forward.

Stradey Park, 1924-25 All Blacks tour

Knew they played in BC on their way back home. This is captioned: “ Group portrait showing L. Paewai, Chris Lawson (coach) and George Nepia”

Found this from 1913

And this from 1936 looking for anything from 1925.
