EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of motor racing in the 1930s. The image features two legendary figures, John Cobb and T. E. Rose-Richards, seated side by side, exuding an air of confidence and determination. Both men don caps and goggles, ready to take on the thrilling world of motorsport. John Rhodes Cobb, a renowned British racing driver born in 1899, is depicted as a true winner with his intense gaze fixed ahead. Beside him sits Thomas Essery Tim Rose Richards (1902-1940), another prominent figure in the sport. Their presence symbolizes the spirit of competition that defined this era. The photograph is taken from Sir Malcolm Campbell's Book of Famous Motorists, edited by none other than Sir Malcolm Campbell himself - a testament to its historical significance. Published by Blackie & Son Limited in London and Glasgow in 1937, this book immortalizes these remarkable individuals who left an indelible mark on British motor racing. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the image while emphasizing their passion for speed and adventure. Against a backdrop of fellow spectators or enthusiasts eagerly watching from afar, this snapshot transports us back to an era when motor racing was at its peak. As we admire this piece of artistry captured by The Print Collector29, we are reminded not only of their achievements but also their contribution to literature through Campbell's book. This print serves as a powerful reminder that even decades later, these men continue to inspire generations with their love for motorsport and unwavering dedication to pushing boundaries on the race track.
