Donald Campbell - Bluebird Proteus CN7 model
The Bluebird-Proteus CN7 was a Land Speed Record-breaking car, driven by Donald Campbell. This model was sold to mark the 1963 attempt at the world land speed record by Campbell at Lake Eyre, Australia, which proved ultimately unsuccessful. On July 17, 1964, Campbell set a record of 403.10 mph in the car, but this was far less than the potential of this remarkable venicle. The model is pictured with a Bluebird pennant

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the essence of determination and innovation: Donald Campbell, the legendary British driver, stands proudly next to the Bluebird Proteus CN7 model, a testament to his relentless pursuit of the Land Speed Record. The year was 1963, and Campbell had set his sights on Lake Eyre in Australia for his next attempt. The Bluebird Proteus CN7, with its sleek, futuristic design and elegant blue hue, represented the pinnacle of automotive engineering at the time. Unfortunately, Campbell's attempt at Lake Eyre was unsuccessful, but he didn't let that deter him. On July 17, 1964, he returned to the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah and set a new Land Speed Record of 403.10 mph, a significant achievement but far less than the potential of this remarkable vehicle. This model, now a cherished collector's item, is a scaled-down replica of the Bluebird Proteus CN7. It comes with an authentic Bluebird pennant, adding to its historical significance. The toy, with its unique design and meticulous attention to detail, transports us back to an era of speed records, innovation, and the indomitable human spirit. The Bluebird Proteus CN7 remains a symbol of the past, a reminder of Campbell's unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of what was thought possible.
