Speed Champions

Godfrey Phillips Ltd.

30 cards

Andrew Rowley has suggested showing two cards from Godfrey Phillips' Speed Champions collection, as the photos come from events at Chelsea's Stamford Bridge. I found another photo of Lord Burghley which shows a similar background and that comes from the British Games at Stamford Bridge, though it's dated 1931. But it looks as if it comes from the same event, perhaps taken just seconds apart.
