EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the thrilling world of motor racing in the 1930s. The image showcases the Ford V8 Greyhound open tourer of JA Driskell, as it competes in the prestigious Monte Carlo Rally of 1934. Painted by artist Bill Brunell, every detail is meticulously captured, from the classic car's sleek lines to its registration number YY7062. The scene unfolds on a cobbled avenue, adding an air of nostalgia and authenticity to the composition. A group portrait reveals rally driver J. A. Driskell standing proudly beside his vehicle, exuding confidence and determination. Dressed in period-appropriate attire - a stylish coat for him and a fashionable fur coat for her - they epitomize the fashion sensibilities of their time. Surrounded by fellow competitors and spectators alike, this snapshot captures not only a moment in automotive history but also reflects the spirit of camaraderie that defined motorsport during this era. Despite finishing 62nd out of 114 participants, Driskell's dedication shines through as he represents Britain with pride. This evocative photograph transports us back to an age when motor racing was both exhilarating and glamorous. It serves as a testament to the enduring allure of vintage cars and reminds us why events like the Monte Carlo Rally continue to captivate audiences even today.
