Captain Malcolm Campbell at Mountjoy Corner, Phoenix Park during practice
Summary
Contributed by Bob Montgomery 2012: "This photograph was taken during Thursday practice for the 1929 RIAC Irish International Grand Prix. Malcolm Campell drove this Sunbeam in the race." And thanks to Bob, we now also know that this race was on Thursday, 11 July 1929, and that Campbell retired from the race "with a slipping clutch and a spluttering engine." Surely not a good combination!..Date: Thursday, 11 July 1929..NLI Ref.: HOG193 ( vtls000218498 )
Images from our photo collections that show those magnificent men (and women) in their flying, choo choo-ing, and driving machines... Oh, and we've cheated, we're adding boats and ships, jaunting cars and carriages, trams too and bicycles - we're completely shameless. So, basically any form of transport - air, sea, land - with the exception of two human feet...
