Advert, Bowser, the Premier Petrol Pump: A Glimpse into the Early History of Motoring in the 1920s This photograph, titled "Advert, Bowser, the Premier Petrol Pump," takes us back in time to the golden age of motoring in the 1920s. Taken in 1927 by the renowned photographer Terry Parker, this image showcases an iconic Premier petrol pump, a familiar sight on the streets of London during this era. The Premier petrol pump, with its distinctive bowser and ornate design, stands proudly outside a filling station. The bowser, a large container mounted on a wheeled cart, was used to transport fuel directly to vehicles, making refueling a more convenient process for motorists. The pump itself is adorned with the Premier coat of arms, featuring a lion and a unicorn, symbolizing the power and grace associated with the automobile. The setting of this photograph is a quaint house, likely a private residence, with the Premier filling station located in the driveway. The elegant design of the station and the pristine condition of the cars parked nearby suggest that this was an affluent household. The presence of the Royal crest on the station's sign indicates that this was an appointment filling station, catering to the needs of the royal family and their entourage. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of motoring during the 1920s, a time when automobiles were becoming increasingly popular and accessible to the general public. The Premier petrol pump, with its striking design and efficient functionality, was a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the era. Today, it serves as a reminder of the rich history and evolution of the automobile industry.
