Original vintage poster celebrating Mercedes-Benz’s victory at the 24H Le Mans
Located in PARIS, FR
The original vintage poster celebrating Mercedes-Benz’s double victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans is a dynamic tribute to one of the brand’s most iconic moments in motorsport history. Featuring the legendary Mercedes-Benz Typ 300 SL, the poster highlights the triumph of Lang-Riess in first place and Helfrich-Niedermayr in second, marking a dominant performance at the world’s most famous endurance race. Rendered in a striking black-and-white illustration, the artwork captures the speed, intensity, and drama of the race. The perspective places the viewer directly behind the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL as it speeds down the track, its sleek, aerodynamic design cutting through the night. A race official is seen holding a lap board, reinforcing the sense of movement and competition. The hand-drawn style conveys the raw energy of endurance racing, where precision engineering and human determination combine for victory. The typography emphasizes the "double victoire" in bold blue, underscoring the unprecedented achievement. The mention of a new distance record of 3,733.780 km in 24 hours further highlights the engineering excellence of the 300 SL, a car that would go on to become one of the most celebrated sports cars in history. This poster is a rare and valuable collectible, not only for motorsport and automotive enthusiasts but also for lovers of mid-century racing memorabilia...
