    1996 Christie's Pebble Beach Auction Poster FERRARI 166MM Barchetta Linen Backed
    Content of this listing © But for the Love of Cars. All rights reserved.
    Linen-backed poster promoting the 1996 Christie's auction at Pebble Beach, August 18, featuring a beautiful photo of the 1949 Ferrari 166MM (chassis #0010M) driven by Luigi Chinetti.to an absolutely astounding overall win at the 1949 Spa 24-Hour Grand Prix of Belgium.
    As Christie's described it: "Chinetti and Lucas were assigned to the car and they led nearly the entire race outperforming the Delages with engines that were twice the size of the 166. Chinetti and Lucas were the overall winners, a feat which is nothing short of heroic. Not only did they defeat cars with engines double the cubic capacity of the 166, but at one stage during the race legend has it that Chinetti hit a patch of oil left by the Delage of Louveau, lost control, crashed and injured a female spectator in the process. Chinetti jumped out of the car, gave the ailing woman first aid, jumped back in the battered Ferrari and went on to win!"
    Poster measures 19 3/4" x 27 1/4” (51 cm x 70 cm). Linen backing measures 22" x 29 1/2" (57 cm x 76 cm).
    Poster presents beautifully, though there is a remnant stress crease across the front of the car below the bumper (see detail shot to get a sense of this). It's not pronounced because of the linen mounting.
