We have received an Email from Gilbert van der
Jagt who tells us he is a historian currently researching a biography of
Alex Mair, who was Premier of NSW when the bridge was opened. He
aims to publish a book in 2004.
He says
that Alex Mair was a clean-shaven, solidly built gentleman, who had gone
bald in his mid-twenties. He is quite sure Alex Mair is making the
speech.

Thank you Gilbert!!
