EDITORS COMMENTS
A blast from the past! This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - a Leyland WD1 1918 open fire engine, proudly entered by Paul Engelmann from Saffron Walden, Essex into the renowned London to Brighton commercial vehicle run. Originally commissioned for the esteemed London Fire Brigade, this magnificent engine has quite a tale to tell. After years of dedicated service, it was unexpectedly discovered abandoned in a rural Norfolk farm hedge.

In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the brave firemen donning their uniforms and standing tall beside their beloved machine. Their commitment to public safety and unwavering dedication is palpable through their proud expressions.
