EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the remarkable journey of Michael Terry as he crossed Northern Australia with one loyal companion. The image showcases a Ford car and a home-made trailer, which served as their trusty means of transport throughout this daring adventure. Taken by an anonymous European photographer in the 19th century, this photograph is now part of a private collection. It was later used as an illustration for the book "Heroes of Modern Adventure" by T. C. Bridges and H. Hessell Tiltman, published in 1927. The image exudes a sense of history and heroism, depicting Terry's courageous feat against the harsh Australian landscape. The Ford car stands proudly amidst its surroundings, symbolizing progress and innovation during that era. Terry's determination to conquer Northern Australia is palpable through this snapshot frozen in time. The homemade trailer attached to his vehicle serves as a testament to his resourcefulness and resilience on this arduous expedition. As we gaze upon this evocative scene, we are transported back to an era when automobiles were still novel marvels capable of embarking on great adventures. This photograph encapsulates not only the spirit of exploration but also pays homage to those who dared to push boundaries in pursuit of their dreams.
