VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image is a vintage advertisement with the title "Gone with the wind-UP, " which appears to be a play on words referencing the famous novel and film "Gone with the Wind. " The ad features an illustration of fighter aircraft, specifically Hawker Hurricanes, soaring through the sky. Below this graphic, there's text that reads: "Our sincere apologies to the Author of the World-famous novel, but we think readers will agree that the slight addition to the title describes very aptly re-actions of would-be invaders to Hawker Hurricanes raging over this Country. Even voyagers in tropical lands where hurricanes are 'part of weather'—do not—we imagine experience such an 'off-shore' wind as minions of THAT MAN are getting from Hurricanes of Britain. " At the bottom, it concludes with "Tails up!" followed by branding for Reynolds Special Steel Tubes for Aircraft. The Reynolds Tube Company Ltd. , Tipton, Sandwell logo is also present. This advertisement seems to be from around World War II era based on its reference to defending against invaders using British fighter planes and could have been aimed at boosting morale or advertising materials used in military equipment manufacturing.
