EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, The Hon. Charles Stewart Rolls (1877-1910) is seen seated in the driver's seat of his powerful 110 H.P. Mors car. The year is 1903, and Rolls, a British engineer and aviator, is beaming with pride as he had recently set a new world record for land speed at Welbeck, reaching an impressive 83 3/4 miles per hour. At the time, Rolls was the proprietor of CS Rolls & Co., a London-based company renowned for selling high-quality cars. In May 1904, Rolls crossed paths with Henry Royce, an accomplished engineer, who had built his first motor car just a year prior. An agreement was soon reached between the two visionaries, with Royce Limited agreeing to manufacture a range of cars exclusively for CS Rolls & Co. These cars would bear the esteemed name Rolls-Royce. Despite his success with Rolls-Royce, Rolls could not resist the allure of speed and the thrill of setting records. His Mors car, a testament to his passion for motoring, is a reminder of his early achievements in the automotive world. This photograph encapsulates the spirit of innovation, ambition, and the relentless pursuit of speed that characterized the early days of the automobile industry.
