those are enormous tires for hand carts... I'm going to guess they are patched tires from small airplanes, and weren't going to be wasted or thrown away... good recycle effort!

  1. A rather significant historic photo Jesse with the pioneer Australian aviator Charles Kingsford-Smith (after whom Sydney Kingsford-Smith airport is named) holding a bag from the first official air mail between Australia and England arriving at Croydon Airport on 16 December 1931. That's the "Southern Star" behind him, a sister aircraft to the more famous "Southern Cross" which Kingsford-Smith flew in 1928 to be the first ever to fly across the Pacific Ocean from the US to Australia (11,585km or 7,240 miles)
