VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for Perkins Diesel Engines, featuring an image of the iconic Tower Bridge in London. The bridge looms large in the background with its two distinctive towers and upper-level walkways connecting them. In the foreground, there's a Metropolitan River Police patrol boat speeding on the Thames River, likely powered by one of Perkins' diesel engines. The ad highlights various models of Perkins Diesel Engines along with their specifications such as number of cylinders, bore size, stroke length, and cruising RPMs. It emphasizes key selling points like fuel economy due to elimination of petrol-like starts; low priced non-strangling type air cleaners; greater cruising range without loss of carried load; reduced running and maintenance costs; comprehensive service throughout the world; durability during wartime conditions exceeding that for other British-built engines. At the bottom is the bolded name "Perkins DIESEL ENGINES" followed by a note indicating they are suitable for goods and passenger vehicles, industrial applications, marine applications etc. , along with contact information for Perkins Ltd. at Lincoln Road in Peterborough. Overall this advertisement aims to convey reliability and efficiency associated with Perkins Diesel Engines while capitalizing on patriotic sentiments through references to wartime performance.
