Castrol advertising - Freddy Frith 1937


-SG- Over the weekend, I picked up a (somewhat expensive!) postcard at the Winchester (UK!) Antiques Market.  A scan of both sides is attached and I guess it was a small part of Castrol's 1937 advertising activities.  Incidentally, Freddy also put in the fastest lap in the Senior at 90.27 mph and Norton team-mate 'Crasher' White finished third. Stanley Woods, by then Velocette mounted, was second, a mere 15 seconds behind Frith.
