THE INVISIBLE MAN RETURNS

Cedric Hardwicke, Vincent Price, Nan Grey.

Wolverhampton Odeon Advertising Car

Original Photograph, circa 1940.

From the personal collection of the late cinema and theatre manager, Percy Swanwick, a keen amateur photographer. As far as we know, no copies of these images were ever copied for retail or public distribution. Swanwick was consistently creative and theatrical in his promotions, all of which was reflected in his photographic collection.

This photograph depicts a promotional mobile display, parked on Salop Street, opposite the old cinema. Image measures 8.5" x 6.5" (circa 21.5cm x 16.5cm). 

A little very minor rubbing here and there, with a developing mark towards lower centre, adajacent to a circa 1" indent. Very good image nonetheless.

Thu, 22 May 2014

The upcoming Bonhams Banbury Run Sale is set to be a motorcycle enthusiast’s dream, with 102 lots of iconic bikes available to the highest bidder. Within the sale, an intriguing duo of Brough Superiors will be offered for auction from a family synonymous with motorcycles for generations – Myerscough. The motoring history behind the Myerscough family began in 1893 when Leonard Myerscough opened a business repairing and selling bicycles, followed by motorcycles and automobiles. At the peak of this business, five locations serviced the Liverpool area under the banner L Myerscough & Sons Ltd. Encouraged by his father, the eldest son, Len Jr, took up dirt track racing in the late 1920s, enjoying success as a contracted team rider for both the Belle Vue Aces and Preston teams from 1928 to 1931.

Record Breaking Vincent Black Shadow Is Top Seller At Bonhams Auction

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

A fully restored, ex-works 1952 Vincent Black Shadow was the top selling motorcycle at the Bonhams auction, held at the International Classic Motorcycle Show at the Staffordshire County Showground on Sunday, April 28, selling for £113,500 (US $176,341 after premiums). This Black Shadow was part of the factory’s bid to set a new 24-hour speed record at Montlhéry in France in May 1952. Mechanical troubles prevented that from happening, but the team still came away with eight records, including six hours at over 100 mph.
