EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken in Haverfordwest, South Wales, around the year 1909, we find Mr. Ernie Holt skillfully navigating an open-topped Rover DE199 through the picturesque streets of this historic town. Passengers in elegant hats, likely cattle dealers, accompany him on this exhilarating journey from the Castle Hotel. The Rover DE199, a grand and imposing vehicle that weighed in excess of 19 hundredweight, was part of the esteemed J. & G. Bland (Motors) Ltd. fleet. Founded in 1875, J. & G. Bland (Motors) Ltd. is an enduring testament to the rich automotive history of Pembrokeshire, Wales. Mr. Holt, dressed in the attire of the era, serves as the chauffeur for this distinguished party, transporting them in style and comfort. The open top of the Rover DE199 allows them to take in the fresh Welsh air and enjoy the scenic beauty of their surroundings. The windscreen-less design of the car adds to the sense of adventure and freedom, while the passengers' hats and attire lend an air of sophistication and elegance to the scene. This photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the Edwardian era, offering a unique perspective on the role of automobiles in daily life and the evolution of transportation in Haverfordwest and beyond.
