It's a retouched photo. Visible the work with Adobe Photoshop. Miss was erased and ditto on rear wing.
Several of the 1952-53 period photographs posted by Christian.Fr "thanks to Max Pershin" above are actually strictly copyright The GP Library and were taken by my late friend and colleague Geoffrey Goddard. It would be thoughtful, just sometimes, if internet enthusiasts at least gave some credit to the people who a) were there and recorded such images at the time, and b) to the people who have collected, preserved and (most of the time) are willing to share some of this material with like-minded enthusiasts. Generally, we are not minded to resort to litigation after our material's copyright is infringed like this, but at a minimum after being screwed it's quite nice to receive a thank-you kiss... DCN
I think you'll find Doug that even 'Mr Pershin' doesn't know who the copyrights belong to, or even who took the photos. I normally try my best to at least find out who might possibly have taken the photos, but sometimes its a tremendous task....however, it is good that people like yourselves pipe up and claim the credit, as it means we can then say thankyou and double check permission after (not always the best way, but it's a start to being thoughtful). If you look at the photos closely, they are terrible resolution anyway, so its not as though anyone can download them and make any use of them.....I do clearly see your point though.
I for one had no idea that Geoff had taken those shots. Beyond copywrite and credit issues, as a fan I would have been interested to know that they were his.
A deserved victory! Would love to see some guys in orange on the podium.......but that wasn't to be..
'Europeans' eh... Much loved of course by we Brits. 'The Times' newspaper's famous headline read 'Fog in Channel - Continent Isolated'. DCN

Great photos! It's interesting that most of the people in the 3rd photo are looking down the track and not at the 2 wrecked cars. Maybe they were expecting more trouble. Al

Are you trying to trick us, Michiel? That third shot is a different race. The #2 is a different car (still an Aston?), and the flags have all disappeared! Great photos, though!
You were just checking to see if we were paying attention, right? What is that #2 car in the third photo, and what race?
Not really a old pic but great effect with old ladies, and others... Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
