EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a thrilling motor race in 1920s Britain. The image showcases the Aston Martin of Bertie Kensington-Moir, as he fearlessly navigates the challenging Essex Motor Club Kop Hillclimb in Buckinghamshire. With its sleek design and powerful engine, this classic Aston Martin with a 1496 cc capacity is an epitome of automotive excellence. The photograph provides detailed information about the event entry number (39), driver's name (Kensington Moir, H. ), and his impressive time of 39.2 seconds on this demanding hillside course. In the background, we catch a glimpse of another iconic vehicle, the Bugatti Brescia with matching specifications. The scene exudes nostalgia for a bygone era when motoring was both an exhilarating sport and a symbol of status. Spectators line the avenue to witness this high-speed spectacle unfold before their eyes. Among them is Bill Brunell, captivated by every twist and turn as he watches Kensington-Moir masterfully maneuver his Aston Martin through rural lanes.
