EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time as The Duke and Duchess of York, later known as King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother, visit the Brooklands Motor Racing Circuit in Surrey on 2nd July, 1932. The occasion was a meeting arranged by the Junior Car Club in aid of Guys Hospital. The Duke and Duchess are seen inspecting racing cars with great interest, their expressions reflecting a sense of excitement and enthusiasm. The Duke of York, who would ascend to the throne in 1936, was an avid motor enthusiast and a regular attendee at motor races. His love for cars was well-known, and he was even presented with a Bugatti Type 51 Grand Prix racing car as a gift in 1934. The Duchess, too, was known to enjoy the thrill of motor racing, and this outing to Brooklands was a testament to their shared passion. The photograph offers a glimpse into the 1930s, an era of innovation and progress, where the royals were not just figures of pomp and ceremony but also active participants in society. The Duke and Duchess of York's visit to the Junior Car Club meeting was a reflection of their support for charitable causes and their connection with the people, making this image a significant document of British royal history. The photograph also showcases the burgeoning popularity of motor racing during the 1930s, with the Duke and Duchess surrounded by sleek racing cars and eager drivers. This image is a fascinating reminder of a bygone era, where royalty and racing intersected, creating a unique blend of glamour, power, and philanthropy.
