Description: Framed caricature of "Dickie Davies" by Sallon of the "Daily Mirror" The text under the picture reads as follows:- Motorcycle competition manager for Dunlop, DICKIE DAVIES is probably the best-known and the best-liked of all the " trade barons." After 38 years with his company, the last 20 on the competition side, he still retains a terrific enthusiasm for his work, and an astounding capacity for getting it done in the rushed hours before a big race or trial starts. Off duty, there is no better man to get the party going than Dickie, the man who could extract satisfying music from a bar piano years before Winifred Atwell ever thought of using that instrument as a gimmick. This picture is from a set of cartoons commissioned by Shell-Mex and BP Ltd. to mark the 50th anniversary of the Isle of Man TT races in May 1957. It featured motor-cycling personalities both from the past and present at that time. See my other auctions for some of the other pictures. Historical picture framed in a 25 x 20 cm. (10 x 8 inch) size clipframe. Naturally the picture you are bidding on does NOT have the "SAMPLE" watermark!! Powered by WonderLister Desktop App
