Very cool you guys. Is the photo itself top secret for now Andrew?

Thanks Gerd - I would have had no hope!

The note must have been written a while after the photo was taken considering the accident she had in the car. (film would have needed to been processed and photo printed) It is interesting she dated it the day she raced.

thanks Andrew

It's in German, Andrew.
It says: "In these days I found a genuine, sporty friend in Hans Klenk.
Bousquet, Monthlery, 17. August 1955"

Her maiden name was Schaffer (born in Austria), so, of course, her mother language was German.

I have an original photo that was signed by Annie Bousquet, but I do not know where to start with a google translation! If any French members here can read this handwriting and translate, I would be extremely appreciative!
