Description: Framed caricature of "Duncan Hamilton" by Sallon of the "Daily Mirror" The text in the picture reads as follows:- It was at Silverstone in 1950 that the name of DUNCAN HAMILTON first attracted notice when, with an Austin Healey, he headed that great driver Sommer in a sports car event. But it was in 1953 when the burly Duncan achieved fame as co-driver with Tony Rolt of the winning C-type Jaguar in the 24-Hour Race at Le Mans. One year later this partnership failed by 90 seconds to repeat their previous victory after a dramatic duel with Ferrari � a marque for which Hamilton now drives. This picture is from a set of cartoons commissioned by Shell-Mex and BP Ltd. to mark the 60th anniversary of the British Motor Industry in October 1956. It featured racing drivers both from the past and present at that time. See my other auctions for some of the other pictures. Historical picture framed in a 25 x 20 cm. (10 x 8 inch) size clipframe. The picture offered does NOT have the "SAMPLE" watermark!! Powered by WonderLister Desktop App
