EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1934, we are transported back to the thrilling world of motor sport in Gloucestershire. The image showcases a Wolseley Hornet, with its distinctive Vehicle Reg. No. JW4063, driven by H. K. Crawford during the Sunbac Colmore Trial. This classic car, boasting a powerful 1271 cc engine, is seen conquering the challenging Nailsworth Ladder with finesse. As spectators line the track, their eyes fixed on the action unfolding before them, it becomes evident that this event was not just about speed and power but also about skillful maneuvering and precision driving. Ken Crawford takes on this formidable hill climb with determination as he navigates through winding roads lined with trees and plants. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the photograph while emphasizing the intensity of the moment captured. It serves as a reminder of an era when motoring was more than just transportation; it was an exhilarating adventure that pushed both man and machine to their limits. This remarkable snapshot offers us a glimpse into British automotive history - a testament to both engineering excellence and human spirit in pursuit of victory on treacherous terrains. As we admire this vintage car in action, we can't help but feel inspired by those who paved the way for modern motorsport enthusiasts around the world today.
