This print takes us back to the 1930s, specifically to the year 1939. It showcases the first production pictures of a groundbreaking military marvel - the new Crusader Cruiser type tank. This tank was hailed as the fastest fighting vehicle in the world during that era. The photograph captures a momentous scene at the Wolsely factory located on Drens Lane, Ward End, Birmingham. Skilled engineers are diligently working together in this bustling facility to assemble these powerful war machines. The image exudes an air of determination and purpose as they contribute their expertise towards strengthening Britain's defense capabilities.
