EDITORS COMMENTS
Earl Howe and Sir Henry Birkin: A Legendary Race at Brooklands, 1937". In this photograph from 1937, we witness the thrilling race between two iconic figures of British motor racing history. Earl Howe, the esteemed Francis Richard Henry Penn Curzon, 5th Earl Howe, and Sir Henry Ralph Stanley Tim Birkin, 3rd Baronet are seen competing fiercely on the renowned Brooklands circuit. The image captures a moment frozen in time - an exhilarating clash of skill and determination. Both men exude an air of focused intensity as they navigate their powerful vintage cars through the challenging track. The steep curves test their mettle while showcasing their exceptional driving abilities. This print is part of Sir Malcolm Campbell's Book of Famous Motorists, edited by none other than Campbell himself. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy these legendary drivers left behind in British motorsport. Transported back to this era through monochrome imagery, we can almost hear the roar of engines and feel the excitement that enveloped spectators during those adrenaline-fueled races. This snapshot encapsulates not only a fierce rivalry but also highlights Britain's rich automotive heritage. As we admire this piece of artistry captured by The Print Collector, let us celebrate these extraordinary men who pushed boundaries in pursuit of speed and glory on that historic day at Brooklands Circuit.
