Checking the Association Register reveals details of approximately 150 Swallows (saloons and 2-seaters), compared with around 100 Gordon Englands (all models); so it's perhaps surprising that period photos of Gordon Englands seem to outnumber those of Swallows by some considerable number. In fact until recently there were only two Swallow pictures in the Gallery, both of which were modern colour photos, so I was pleased to receive this shot from Tony Johns, showing a 1929 Swallow 2-seater. The registration number dates from around April/May 1929, whilst the tax disc in the windscreen shows a pattern used only in 1931, 1932 and 1933.
