The Bothwell Collection will be auctioned on Saturday, November 11, 2017 at the Bothwell Ranch in Woodland Hills, California.<\/p>\n<p>Known for his passion for early motorcars, Lindley Bothwell, together with his wife Ann, was a charter member of the Horseless Carriage Club of America and, by the mid-1950s, the owner of one of the largest private collections of automobiles in the country. The Bothwell Collection is housed at their ranch property amid orange groves just over the hills from Hollywood.<\/p>\n<p>Malcolm Barber, Bonhams Chairman, said, \u201cLindley and Ann Bothwell need little introduction. Their contribution to historic motoring is renowned, their cars are legendary and, most important, their enthusiasm all encompassing. This is truly a monumental collection and we are extremely flattered to represent it at auction. The phrase \u2018once-in-a-lifetime\u2019 is very appropriate.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\r\n                <a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_front.jpg' class='tipi-lightbox'>\r\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_front.jpg'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"533\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_front.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_front.jpg 533w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_front-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_front-67x100.jpg 67w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_front-293x440.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 533px) 100vw, 533px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n                <div class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption'>\r\n                1913 Peugeot 4.5-Liter L45 from the Bothwell Collection\r\n                <\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n                <a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_left-1-1.jpg' class='tipi-lightbox'>\r\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_left-1-1.jpg'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_left-1-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_left-1-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_left-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_left-1-1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_left-1-1-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_left-1-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_left-1-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Peugeot_left-1-1-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n                <div class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption'>\r\n                1913 Peugeot 4.5-Liter L45 from the Bothwell Collection\r\n                <\/div><\/figure>\n<p>Of the 50 automobiles to be auctioned, perhaps best known are the 1913 Indianapolis Peugeot, 1908 Prinz Heinrich Benz and 1908 Mercedes Simplex.<\/p>\n<p>The 1913 Peugeot 4.5-Liter L45 is not only regarded by many as the father of all racing engines, but this specific car ran in the 1916 Indianapolis 500. Decades later when Bothwell took the Peugeot back to Indianapolis to compete in the Veteran Class, he beat Dario Resta\u2019s 85mph lap record at over 103mph &#8212; a record that had stood for 30 years. Tremendously historic and full of provenance, the significance of this race car cannot be overstated, particularly when one considers that it was this engine that inspired Miller, Offenhauser and a host of others. It&#8217;s one of the most original and pure racing cars of this era Bonhams has ever offered.<\/p>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\r\n                <a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_front-1.jpg' class='tipi-lightbox'>\r\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_front-1.jpg'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"537\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_front-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_front-1.jpg 537w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_front-1-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_front-1-67x100.jpg 67w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_front-1-293x436.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 537px) 100vw, 537px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n                <div class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption'>\r\n                1908 Benz 105hp Prinz Heinrich from the Bothwell Collection\r\n                <\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n                <a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_right-1.jpg' class='tipi-lightbox'>\r\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_right-1.jpg'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_right-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_right-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_right-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_right-1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_right-1-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_right-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_right-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Bothwell_Benz_right-1-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n                <div class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption'>\r\n                1908 Benz 105hp Prinz Heinrich from the Bothwell Collection\r\n                <\/div><\/figure>\n<p>In 1908, the Prinz Heinrich Tour, a famous German race named after Prince Heinrich of Prussia &#8212; an ardent fan of the nascent sport of motor racing, was won by a Benz.

Five of these restored icons, originally from the city of Los Angeles, will be included in the sale.<\/p>\n<p>And then there will be the vast collection of spares and automobilia amassed by Bothwell over a lifetime of collecting.<\/p>\n<p>Rupert Banner, Bonhams VP of Motoring, added, \u201cWe are incredibly excited to offer these fascinating automobiles for sale, particularly the early racers. The sale of the sole surviving L45 Grand Prix Peugeot will be a generational opportunity to acquire a landmark car in the history of the development of racing in America and Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For
