Very cool as driving in 1916 was still new and so was competitive motorsports. Put into the context of promoting the sport, you can see the power of the comic artform to shape public opinion.

Totally agree. Muntañola was a clear exponent of comics as an advertising tool. Today's companies should take note today and opt for the personal and original art work of artists over an AI that raises doubts regarding copyright!
