While there are many references to Bob Copland in a multitude of publications, I have comparatively little material directly relating to The Man by way of photographs etc. Here are a collection of often unrelated items directly and indirectly associated with him.
The first pictures are of a replica of Bob's 1936 Wakefield Class model model that I built. Bob did not win the Wakefield Trophy with his original model but the design is probably considered to be one of the most consistently high performance examples of the '4 Ounce Wakefield' specification.
