An awesome find from the early post-war era that pre-dates Formula One!

The cover art is by world renowned motorsport artist Geo Ham.

This booklet is Din-A5 sized (8.3 x 5.8 inches), contains 50 pages filled to the brim with information on the drivers, the track and period advertising.

It is in very good condition for its age.

The race would be won by Guiseppe Farina on Maserati 4CLT before Louis Chiron on Talbot-Lago and Emanuel de Graffenried, also on Maserati 4CLT.

This was also the event at which Prince Igor Troubetzkoy became the first ever Ferrari Grand Prix driver!

Here we have a historically VERY important Scuderia Ferrari item.

This is the original contract that Enzo Ferrari signed with Maurice Trintignant to become a Ferrari works driver in the 1954 season.

The contract is dated March 16, 1954 and covers the terms and conditions under which Trintignant will race.

To make this letter extra special, the back shows the prolongation for the 1955 season.

During these two years, Maurice Trintignant competed in 16 F1 Grand Prix for Scuderia Ferrari, raking up 1 win (Monaco 1955), 2 second places and 1 third place plus winning the 1954 running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Enzo signed both the original contract on the front as well as the 1955 continuation on the back.

Comes complete with a contemporary portrait photo of Maurice Trintignant.

We can not express how rare such an item is and how important it is in the history of the Ferrari racing team.

An a very simple and relatively small but oh so rare poster...

These posters could be seen hanging throughout the principality of Monaco prior to the race in 1961 but this one is a little more special...

This particular one is executed as a counter-top version and it is the very first one in this execution that we ever managed to lay our hands on.

This poster features the best logo we have ever seen with the racing car and "MONACO" perfectly integrated into it!

Rumour has it that this poster was banned by the organizers as they deemed the black background to be too morbid at that time. Maybe the rumour is true... but we don't have knowledge of an alternative poster for the 1961 Monaco Grand Prix... so...

The race was, famously, won by Stirling Moss on Lotus 18 ahead of Richie Ginther, Phil Hill and Wolfgang Berghe von Trips, all on Ferrari 156 Sharknose.

Considering its age, it is over half a century old, we dare to call this unusual Monaco "poster" to be in mint condition.

9.8 x 12.5 inches or some 25 x 30 cm.

Only 1 available.
