VERY EARLY ENGINEER BOOTS

I'm always on the look out for tangible proof of early Engineer Boots.  Back in March, I posted a photograph from 1938 showing a gentleman wearing a pair of these awesome boots and back then it was the earliest proof I'ver personally run accross.  Until now...

This photograph is dated from 1934 showing a racer clearly sporting Engineer Boots; however, upper straps appear to be non-existent.  Now, to find out if they existed five years earlier.
