The above item is a pic of an Alty 2nd XI in China. Did an Alty team tour China in the 1920s?

Possibly. Wasn't our first team was in America whipping the locals? I think that's what started their 'Great Depression'!  :D

I've sent the details of this auction to Terry Surridge i.e. the (unofficial) Altrincham FC historian.

If anyone can enlighten us on this subject, it will be him.
