EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this print is the iconic Standard Avon of J Priestly, participating in the Sunbac Colmore Trial near Winchcombe, Gloucestershire in 1934. The vintage vehicle, registered as OG9736, stands as a testament to the classic cars of the 20th century. Driven by the skilled rally driver J Priestly, this image showcases his impressive driving skills as he navigates a bend on Gypsy Lane. The challenge of off-road motoring is evident in every detail - from the rustic countryside backdrop to the rugged terrain that lies ahead. The event entry number 139 signifies Priestly's participation in this prestigious trial where he secured an admirable second place finish. As he speeds through rural life with determination and precision, it becomes clear why motor sport enthusiasts hold him in high regard. Surrounded by towering trees and lush plants lining both sides of the avenue, this snapshot captures a moment frozen in time. It transports us back to an era when road transport was still evolving and automobiles like Standard Avon were at their prime. Preserved for generations to come at the National Motor Museum, this photograph serves as a reminder of Britain's rich automotive heritage. Bill Brunell skillfully captured not just a car but also an entire concept - one that symbolizes freedom, adventure, and innovation.
