Stunning Vintage Motor Racing Drawing By Carlo Demand With Border. One Of A Set.
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:15345331 |
This is one of a set of 7 by the famous vintage French Motor Racing artist Carlo(s) Demand. They are truly stunning and very collectable. I do not think that they are originals but there is no information as to how many there were or when and after exhaustive enquiries there seems to be little or no record of them. It is difficult to date them, but there is definitely a bit of age to them and they are professionally fitted with a sepia-card border and wrapped in a selophane sleeve with... a tissue back. Each one measures 360 x 290mm (approx.) and has an explanatory label which looks like a type-writer detailed description of the action packed picture. I un-earthed them a while back, with the intention of mounting them on my study wall, but we have since down-sized and it is no longer possible.This one is " Monaco 1955. Shortly after the start, Ascari, in his Lancia (no26) is chasing Fangio and Moss". I will sell them individually, but I would urge you to view the set, which I have listed in other categories for maximum exposure. They are incredible and I will be sorry to see them go. Thank you for looking !
