This print showcases the innovative Dynasphere, a monowheel vehicle patented by JA Purves in 1930. The image is part of a series titled Modern Wonders, featured on a Churchmans cigarette card from Great Britain and Ireland in 1938. The Dynasphere represents an extraordinary advancement in driving technology during the early 20th century. With its single large wheel encasing the entire vehicle, it revolutionized transportation with its unique design and engineering marvels. This particular snapshot captures a moment on a British street, where a confident female driver takes control of this futuristic machine. As she navigates through the lane, surrounded by curious onlookers, one cannot help but admire her pioneering spirit and embrace of new concepts. The Dynasphere embodies both innovation and invention as it symbolizes progress in road transport. The chromolithograph technique used to create this print adds depth and vibrancy to every detail captured within the frame. It serves as a testament to John Archibald Purves' vision for future mobility. This remarkable photograph not only transports us back to an era defined by technological advancements but also highlights how women played an integral role in embracing these changes. It stands as a tribute to their resilience and determination to break barriers even during challenging times.
