EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a truly remarkable accident that occurred during a hill climb at Caerphilly, near Cardiff. Taken by an anonymous European photographer in the 19th century, this image is now part of a private collection. The scene depicted here was later used as an illustration for the book "The Romance of Motoring" by T. C. Bridges and H. Hessell Tiltman. In this snapshot, we witness the aftermath of a car accident that took place during the hill climb event. The excitement and glamour associated with early automobiles are evident in this historical moment frozen in time. The driver, Mr Raymond Mays, miraculously emerged uninjured from his vehicle after reaching speeds of up to 60 miles per hour. The photograph showcases not only the dangers involved in early motoring but also highlights the resilience and ingenuity of those who dared to venture into this new mode of transport. One can't help but marvel at how such accidents were captured on film back then when photography technology was still evolving. As we gaze upon this intriguing piece of history, it serves as a reminder of how far transportation has come since then. It sparks our curiosity about the journeys taken by these early travelers and their experiences on roads less traveled.
