Ferrari neon sign in acrylic glass and steel
About the Item
Plexiglass and Steel, electrical system beautifully preserved and in working order...still present original Ballasts (Neon tube transformers) while wires have been retrofitted.
Original system delivered with the sign.
The plexy was repaired in one small crack barely visible only when turned on and highlighted in the photograph.
Original and dated is this luminous Insignia representing the Italian Tricolor surmounting the black Prancing Horse on a yellow field...whose story is fascinating and was told by Enzo Ferrari himself only once: "The little horse was painted on the nacelle of the fighter plane of Francesco Baracca, the heroic aviator who fell on Montello, the Ace of Aces of World War I. When I won in '23 the first Savio circuit, which was run in Ravenna, I met Count Enrico Baracca, father of the hero; from that meeting came the next one, with his mother, Countess Paolina. It was she who said to me one day, 'Ferrari, put my son's prancing horse on your cars. It will bring you luck'. I still keep the photograph of Baracca, with the parents' dedication, in which they entrust me with the emblem. The little horse was and has remained black; I added the canary yellow background, which is the color of Modena."
