Sydney H. Allard (center), founder of the Allard car company, is captured in a moment of intense concentration during the 1952 Monte Carlo Rally. Dressed in a trench coat, he leans in to examine a document held by a man in a tweed overcoat, while another official with a notepad observes. A successful racing motorist in cars of his own manufacture, Allard would win this rally. Starting from Glasgow in his Allard P1 (N° 146), he narrowly defeated Stirling Moss for the overall victory. A portion of a vintage car is visible to the left.
