VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement featuring an announcement from The Selsdon Aero & Engineering Co. , Ltd. The ad prominently displays the ABC logo at the top and includes an illustration of a biplane flying above clouds with a pilot waving from the cockpit. Below, there's an ornate border surrounding text that reads "Announcement" in bold letters. The main body of text within this framed area states that The Selsdon Aero & Engineering Company has been appointed by A. B. C. Motors Limited as sole manufacturers for Great Britain of the "Wasp" and "Gnat" types of A. B. C engines, which are intended to provide orders for air and sea aviation on behalf of the proprietors, Walton Motors Ltd. The advertisement emphasizes years of research into aircraft engine perfection, highlighting reliability under difficult conditions such as those experienced during high-altitude flights. It concludes with another mention of THE SELSDON AERO & ENGINEERING CO. , along with their address at 1 ALBEMARLE ST. , LONDON, W. At the bottom right corner is a seal or emblem with inscriptions around it including what appears to be "London County Council Tramways, " suggesting some official endorsement or connection. Overall, this image captures early 20th-century advertising style for aerospace technology companies in Britain—emphasizing prestige, technical excellence, and national manufacturing capabilities.
