ABC and Slim on 1923 Land's End Trial 
Reference number: Autocar Glass Plate A1380, This photo is from the LAT Photographic archive, which is part of Haymarket who I work for. Please see the "Ordering Prints" page if you would like prints stating the reference above but please mention me, (Austin Harris). People Edward Ogden Woodhead L Contamin Registration number(s) R 8696 |
312 is A O Woodhead's ABC. 313 is an extremely obscure marque
called a Slim (or SLIM?) driven by L Contamin. This courtesy of
Donald Cowbourne's 1919-28 British Trials Drivers. (Donald sadly
died a few weeks ago).
The ABC was owned & driven by E.O (Edward Ogden) Woodhead, my wife's uncle. He got a bronze medal which I have.
He got a gold medal in the same car in the MCC London Exeter trial Boxing Day 1923.
PS The MCC London Lands End Trial was 30/31st March 1923; clearly marked on Woodhead's Bronze Medal.
Presumably Autocar report/photo was published in April
