EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures British racing driver George Bedford in his Hillman 10hp car, taken back in 1921. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but it beautifully showcases the essence of early 20th-century motor racing. Bedford exudes confidence as he sits behind the wheel, donning a pair of goggles that shield his eyes from the wind. His passion for speed and adrenaline is palpable, as he prepares to embark on another thrilling race. Intriguingly, seated beside him is an unidentified female companion. Her presence adds a touch of mystery to the scene, leaving us wondering about her role in Bedford's life or perhaps even her own involvement in motorsport during those pioneering years. The Hillman 10hp itself stands as a testament to British automobile industry prowess at that time. A symbol of innovation and engineering excellence, it was undoubtedly one of the finest cars on the road during its era. This print not only immortalizes George Bedford's contribution to motor racing but also serves as a window into a bygone era when sportsmen like him pushed boundaries and embraced adventure on wheels. It reminds us of how far we have come in terms of technology and automotive advancements while honoring those who paved the way for today's motorsport enthusiasts. Displayed proudly at the National Motor Museum or any motoring enthusiast's collection, this photograph encapsulates an important chapter in both British history and sporting heritage.
