Here is a pretty nice 1952 Belgian Grand Prix race poster that I got with two other posters from the same year several years ago, neat thing is the Ferrari as the car in the poster, shows some light damage along the edge and fold lines, there is an address in Belgium on the back and looks like it was mailed at some point in time. Don't know to much about this one and havn't been able to find another anywhere for this race, theis was the first race year I believe after the war. Anyone know more about this one?
The 52 Belgian GP was won by Alberto Ascari in a Ferrari Tipo 500. Here is a link to a diecast 1 : 43 model of the car : http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/99612-1952-53-ferrari-tipo-500-f1-car. Ascari went on to win both the 52 & 53 Wold Championship.
The 1st FIA Formula One World Championship season was held in 1950.
Thanks guys! Anyone know where I could locate another example? I'll post threads on the other two later today. I suspect this one is a rather rare one. Thoughts?
