Oliver Bertram (1910-1975)-caricature

Oliver Bertram started racing in 1929 and was a Brooklands specialist, known for his record attempts with the huge Barnato-Hassan special. He became the Brooklands outer lap record holder in August 1935.

These caricatures were drawn by Frederick Gordon Crosby in 1935. The racing drivers shown were well-known to the British racing enthusiasts of that era, particularly due to their performances at the Brooklands track and major events on the continent.
