What's this, by whom, from when - for 1 point?

Google Search by Image continues to raise its ugly head on AutoPuzzles.
For the sake of our newer members who may not be aware of past discussions on it, Google Search by Image as a means of solving puzzles is banned on this website.

AutoPuzzles is primarily a game of automotive knowledge, not of who can copy and paste the quickest.

We ask all members to remember and respect this, and retain the right to ask puzzle-solvers how they came to their answer.

Have fun!

Jaguar is correct;
Late 1930's also correct.
Remember though you're only allowed one guess at a time..

Yes, that's right, although I had the year as 1939.
This is actually a repost so will now be merged with the original puzzle.
Well done!
