This print takes us back to the year 1939 in Longfield, Kent. The image showcases a significant symbol of the time - a National speed limit sign standing tall amidst an era marked by rapid progress and technological advancements. In this snapshot from between the wars, we are transported to a simpler time when cars were becoming more prevalent on roads across Europe.

The man captured in the frame stands beside his vehicle, perhaps contemplating the rules and regulations that came with this new mode of transportation. As he gazes at the national speed limit sign, one can't help but wonder about his thoughts on road safety during those early days of motoring.
