VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This vintage advertisement from The British Thomson-Houston Co. Ltd., celebrates the success of their magnetos in the King's Cup Air Race of 1932, a prestigious event in British aviation history. The ad features a bold Art Deco design with sharp geometric shapes framing the BTH logo at its center, symbolizing strength and technological advancement. It proudly announces the first, second, and third place winners who used aircraft equipped with BTH magnetos—highlighting Captain W.L. Hope as the victor flying a D.H. Fox Moth-Gipsy III engine plane, followed by F/Lt E.H. Fielden and Sqdr-Ldr W.L.Runciman respectively in similar aircrafts. Emphasized is also Captain H.A Brown’s record speed of 176 mph aboard an Avro Avian using Armstrong-Siddeley Panther II A engine—all testament to BTH's claim of "unfailing reliability."
