EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to a bygone era of motoring excellence.

The year is 1933, and this classic car with registration number JJ215 has become an iconic symbol of British automotive history. As spectators line the muddy hillside track, their eyes are fixed on Mrs Vaughan as she skillfully maneuvers her vehicle through the treacherous countryside. This rally driver embodies strength and determination as she conquers each obstacle with precision. The ruggedness of rural life is evident in every detail captured by photographer Bill Brunell. From the mud-splattered exterior of Mrs Vaughan's car to the rustic surroundings, this image transports us to a time when motor sport was truly a test of both man and machine.

Her third-place finish in this prestigious event further solidifies her legacy as a trailblazer for female drivers. Preserved within Heritage Images' collection at The National Motor Museum, this vintage photograph serves as a testament to both automotive ingenuity and women's empowerment. It reminds us that even in
