EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past with this elegant and functional motoring hood advertisement from the year 1905, featuring the Sandringham model from Lovegroves. This innovative headgear was designed specifically for motorists, combining both a cap and a dust hood in one stylish package. The Sandringham motoring hood was made of high-quality leather, with luxurious fur trim, making it not only practical but also fashionable.

This Sandringham motoring hood was an answer to that need, providing both sun protection and dust coverage.

This advertisement from the Illustrated London News Ltd, published in January 18, 1905, showcases the Sandringham motoring hood in all its glory. The price for this stylish and practical headgear was certainly a worthwhile investment for any motorist of the time. The Sandringham motoring hood is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the intersection of fashion, technology, and practicality during the Edwardian era.
