EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1922, we see the renowned HG Pope fearlessly maneuvering a GWK through water at a demonstration event held at Frensham Common Pond in Surrey. The vintage car, a remarkable two-seater with a powerful 1370 cc engine and the registration number BL9673, showcases the epitome of classic automobile design from the early 20th century. Pope's confident presence behind the wheel is evident as he navigates through the challenging terrain with precision and skill. Dressed in his signature flat cap, he exudes an air of sophistication that perfectly complements both him and his surroundings. Frensham Common Pond serves as an idyllic backdrop for this thrilling display of motoring prowess. Its serene waters provide an unexpected twist to this off-road adventure, adding an element of excitement to an already exhilarating scene. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects Britain's rich automotive heritage. It symbolizes innovation, determination, and passion for motor cars that have become ingrained in British culture throughout history. Preserved by Bill Brunell's expert lens, this monochrome masterpiece now finds its place among other treasured artifacts at the National Motor Museum. A testament to human ingenuity and engineering excellence, it continues to inspire generations with its timeless charm and unwavering spirit.
