EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, sourced from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, presents a 7 HP De Dion veteran car, believed to have been in use during the early 1900s. The car, with its distinctive De Dion suspension system, was not manufactured by HP, but rather a privately owned vehicle of the era. The image transports us back in time, evoking the spirit of the Victorian and Edwardian eras with its intricate details and nostalgic charm. The car, adorned with lanterns and other period-specific features, is shown in a serene setting, likely on a country road or driveway. The absence of modern distractions allows us to fully appreciate the elegance and craftsmanship of this early automobile. The 7 HP De Dion veteran car was an engineering marvel of its time, boasting a top speed of around 30 miles per hour. Its innovative suspension system, designed by the French engineer, Albert De Dion, significantly improved the ride comfort and handling capabilities of the vehicle. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a window into a time when motoring was a new and exciting adventure. The car, with its timeless design and historical significance, continues to captivate and inspire automobile enthusiasts and history buffs alike.
