VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for Cirrus Aero Engines, Ltd. , celebrating their engines' success in air races. The ad features the headline "ALL WON ON CIRRUS ENGINES!" and lists various challenge cups such as the Grosvenor Challenge Cup, Air League Challenge Cup, and S. B. A. C. Challenge Cup with the winning aircraft models—all powered by Cirrus engines—beneath each title. It also highlights that the fastest time of the day was achieved by Capt. R. G. Calvert on a Hermes-Widgeon aircraft. On both sides of the text are images: to the left is an illustration of one of their Cirrus engines, while to the right is a logo or emblem featuring what appears to be a winged figure possibly representing Hermes (a nod to speed and aviation) within an art deco style circle with "Cirrus Hermes" written around it. The bottom section boasts another achievement at Hull Municipal Aerodrome where flights were made using Cirrus-Hermes IV-A engines in light aeroplanes competing for prizes offered by Sir Philip Sassoon. Finally, at the very bottom center, there's additional information about Cirrus Aero Engines, Ltd. , including their address at 59 Kingsway London.
