A Hometown Honors Victor Hemery-The Winner of the 1905 Vanderbilt Cup Race


Vincent Lucas of Sillé-le-Guillaume has created an exhibit honoring driver Victor Hemery, a native of this small village in northwest France and the winner of the 1905 Vanderbilt Cup Race.

Below are photos of the exhibit sent in by Vincent Lucas and the images that I forwarded to him based on this request:


j'habite à Sillé le Guillaume dans la Sarthe, ville natale de Victor Hémery. 
Je débute des recherches sur sa vie pour faire une exposition de ce pilote pas connu dans notre petite ville.
Je voulais savoir si vous aviez des images ou des vidéos qui montrent Victor Hémery au volant et en situation de course.
 
Merci d'avoir pris le temps de me lire et vous remercie pour vos réponses.
 
Vincent Lucas

Translation:

I live in Sille le Guillaume Sarthe, birthplace of Victor Hemery.
I began researching his life for an exhibition of this little known driver in our small town.
I wanted to know if you have pictures or videos showing Victor Hemery driving and racing ?
 
 
Thank you for your time
 
Vincent Lucas


Enjoy,
