JACK DAY: An EPNS twin-handled present trophy inscribed 1st On Formula Acceleration Test, Under 1500cc, Bugatti, 8 10 -27, measures 26.5 cm high. The famous racing driver Jack Day owned several Bugattis in period including a Type 39 (chassis no. 4607) and a Type 37 (chassis no.37145). This trophy was likely won in the Type 37 the year prior to Jack using it in January 1928 to test the viability of racing on Phillip Island. The car ferried to the island and, with local authorities watching, Jack lapped the proposed circuit at an average speed of 72 m.p.h. The first Australian Grand Prix & Formula 1 was run on this circuit in March 1928.
