1964 is a little before I became obsessed with Sevens! Lovely piece of memorabilia. Thanks Henry.
The Austin advert - The car has changed.... shows the rare late 1928, not 1929, Top Hat ,Type R, saloon - but which is pointing the opposite way to the original photograph. ( i suppose to suit the orientation of the Mini. ) The photograph, incidentally, is the only known staged, period photograph of this model I've come across.
