VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This vintage advertisement celebrates the triumphs achieved on Pratt's Ethyl Petrol during the Blackpool Air Pageant held on July 6 & 7 of an unspecified year. The ad proudly proclaims "4 firsts won on Pratt's," highlighting the success of pilots and their aircraft fueled by Pratt's product in various races and competitions. It lists specific victories, such as Dr. Dixon winning the Inter-Club Members Handicap Race (Final) and Miss O'Brien claiming victory in the Daily Dispatch Nomination Handicap (Final). The visual simplicity of this monochrome ad focuses attention on these achievements, underscoring Pratt’s reputation for performance-enhancing fuel within aviation circles at a time when air racing was both a sport and a testbed for advancing aerospace technology.
