    Yeah, so what, you say.

    This cutting is in a museum archive bound volume of articles published in 1933..!
    Do you have a link?

    It would be interesting to find out what provenance the "exactly 100 years old" claim is based upon.

    The timings do fit, as the Allen Brothers were in Scotland cutting their capers by that time.
