EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from the 1930s, we are transported back in time to witness a remarkable moment in motor racing history. The image showcases the talented rally driver Kitty Brunell alongside her sleek MG Magna as they conquer the iconic Castle Esplanade in Edinburgh. With its imposing fortifications serving as a backdrop, this snapshot captures the essence of both strength and elegance. As one of Britain's pioneering female drivers, Kitty Brunell fearlessly takes charge behind the wheel, defying societal norms with her passion for motorsport. The vintage car stands proudly parked on the avenue while spectators line up along the street to catch a glimpse of this thrilling event. The atmosphere is electric with anticipation as participants prepare to embark on their journey through Scotland's scenic roads during the renowned RSAC Scottish Rally. This photograph not only celebrates an era when motoring was still considered an adventurous pursuit but also pays tribute to women who challenged gender stereotypes by excelling in male-dominated fields. It serves as a testament to Kitty Brunell's determination and skill that she became an inspiration for future generations of female rally drivers. Preserved within Heritage Images' collection at National Motor Museum, this monochrome treasure allows us to relive a significant chapter in automotive history while honoring those who paved the way for progress.
