This is John and Jana Taylor's 10-26 Tourer, who they fondly call Georgie after George Singer, who founded the Singer Company in 1876.   Little is known of its history except that it was owned for two years in the early 1950s by a London solicitor, Sir Simeon Bull, who recalls that he had it maintained by a garage in Streatham run by Bill Cameron, who operated at the "sawdust in the sump" end of the market, which might explain why the car came to be in a pretty poor state.  When Georgie was restored in 1979 by Gerry Barr's workshop in Fordingbridge, its original maroon and black colours were changed to smoke grey and black. Georgie then had owners in Hampshire, Dorset and Frome, Somerset, from whence John and Jana bought him in 1993.  The drawing of Georgie below was by artist Richard Wheatland.
