EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in motorsport history - the 1932 British Empire Trophy Race at Brooklands, England. The focus of the image is H. R. S. "Tim". Birkin, an iconic figure in racing, driving his Bentley Blower 4.5s with its imposing Villiers Supercharger. The atmosphere is electric as Birkin takes center stage on the track, showcasing his exceptional driving skills and pushing the limits of his powerful machine. The sheer force of the supercharger is evident from its size and adds to the allure of this vintage photograph. However, despite his undeniable talent and impressive machinery, fate had other plans for Birkin that day. As indicated by the caption's mention of retirement, something unexpected forced him out of the race prematurely. This element adds a sense of drama and highlights both the unpredictability and unforgiving nature of motorsport. Preserved through time on an Autocar Glass Plate negative, this remarkable image holds immense historical value within Motorsport Images' unique collection. It serves as a testament to not only Tim Birkin's legacy but also to an era when racing was raw, exhilarating, and full of risks.
