Oswald J. Bamford
1904 BAMFORD, Oswald J., Hawthornden Manor, Uttoxeter. Cars: 3.5 h.p. Renault, 11 h.p. Clement. Total distance travelled since becoming a motorist: About 17,000 miles. Hobbies: Shooting, photography. Principal aim in furthering automobilism: To use the car at all times and in all weathers for pleasure, to gain the confidence of the public, and prove the advantages motoring possesses over all other modes of travelling. Thinks makers do not attach sufficient importance to the tyres, which he considers are of as much consequence as the engine itself. Believes the majority of tyres are made much too light, when the weight, speed, and side-strain they have to withstand is considered. [1]
