EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the thrilling world of steam-powered racing! This print captures a heart-pounding race between 10-ton traction engines at the Rally held at Paris Hall Farm, Epping. The event, organized by the Epping police sports club and supported by the national traction engine club, was a true spectacle for both enthusiasts and curious onlookers alike. As you gaze upon this historic image, you can almost feel the excitement emanating from the crowd. With policemen fearlessly taking control of these powerful machines, it was an awe-inspiring display of skill and bravery. The half-mile course provided just enough space for these magnificent beasts to showcase their might and speed. The atmosphere is palpable as spectators gather around tents set up nearby, eagerly awaiting each thunderous roar from these mechanical marvels. It's a scene that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of entertainment in 1950s rural Essex – where agriculture meets adrenaline-fueled fun. Adding even more star power to this remarkable day was none other than Freddie Mills, former light-heavyweight boxing champion of the world. His presence elevated this already extraordinary occasion into something truly unforgettable. This stunning print transports you back in time to witness a moment when steam-driven transport reigned supreme. A testament to human ingenuity and engineering prowess, it serves as a reminder of our rich history while igniting our imagination with visions of daring races and nostalgic adventures.
