This print captures a remarkable moment from The Gravesend and District Motor Cycle Gymkhana in 1939. In the midst of an exhilarating event, a daring clown fearlessly takes control of a car, driving it on two wheels with astonishing skill. The image showcases the audacity and thrill-seeking nature that defined this era between the wars. The crowd is visible in the background, their faces filled with awe and excitement as they witness this incredible stunt. Spectators line up along the track, eagerly watching every move made by both bikes and motorbikes alike. Among them are men who can't help but be captivated by this display of extraordinary talent. John Topham's monochrome photography perfectly encapsulates the atmosphere of this unforgettable day. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the image, emphasizing not only the spectacle taking place but also highlighting the humorous aspect brought forth by our courageous clown driver. As we delve into Europeana Photography's vast collection, we stumble upon gems like these that transport us back to an era where entertainment was bold, thrilling, and full of surprises.
