EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the foggy and misty landscapes of Dorset in the 1930s, where the Austin Top-hat saloon of E. C. Smyth competes fiercely in the MCC Exeter Trial. This print captures a moment frozen in history, showcasing a classic car from that era. The vintage Austin Top-hat saloon, with its sleek design and powerful 747 cc engine, stands out amidst the monochrome backdrop. Its registration number GC299 proudly displayed on its body hints at countless adventures it has embarked upon. As spectators gather around Meerhay, their faces filled with anticipation and excitement, they witness an extraordinary display of skillful driving by E. C. Smyth. The weather adds an element of mystery as thick fog envelops both the vehicle and its surroundings. Bill Brunell's expert photography skills bring this scene to life, capturing every detail with precision. His lens transports us back to a time when motor sport was at its peak, showcasing Britain's love affair with cars and rallying. This remarkable image not only highlights the passion for motoring during that period but also pays homage to those who pushed boundaries by participating in such challenging trials. It is a testament to human determination and perseverance against all odds. Preserved within this print lies a piece of history - an emblematic representation of British heritage captured forever.
