From Little Acorns Grow...

A few years ago I received this lovely Christmas card from old mate Bob Tayler. Bob has owned a 1934 Singer Le Mans for many years and brought it with him when he emigrated from the UK.

Lo and behold, the red car in the picture is a child's view of Bob's very own car parked by his cottage near Lac Magog. Drawn by a young friend of the family, the artwork was turned into a card called 'Les Amis de George, Georgeville.' It was printed by a company called 'A la Carte' and the catalogue number is 108.

There's certainly a great deal of detail in the Singer and some artistic licence too- as Bob mentions in his text- the car is still British Racing Green in real life!

Let's hope little George has developed an interest in our favourite marque as a result of his artistic endevours. He's aptly named, too, as it was a George Singer who founded the company and bore his name, although he never saw cars like the Le Mans produced.

Small world!
