VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for Pobjoy engines, highlighting their performance in the King's Cup Race of 1933. The text celebrates the achievements of pilots Flight-Lieutenant E. C. T. Edwards and Mr. A. Henshaw, who flew Comper-Swift aircraft powered by Pobjoy engines, securing second place and winning the Siddeley Trophy respectively. The ad emphasizes reliability and speed with statements like "FLY A POBJOY POWERED MACHINE" and "POBJOY FOR RELIABILITY. " It also notes that no Pobjoy engine experienced trouble during the race, underscoring their continuous full throttle performance throughout the event. Additionally, it provides information about the age of the engines used by both pilots to demonstrate durability over time. The advertisement originates from Pobjoy Airmotors Ltd. , based in Hooton, Cheshire, England.
