Giancarlo Baghetti Memorabilia and Photographs1934 - 1995
This is a vintage 1961 B&W photo of the pack coming through the Parabolica turn during the 1961 Grand Prix of Italy at the Autodromo di Monza.
The photo shows not less than FIVE of the famous Ferrari 156 Sharknose cars in 1 single view!
This race would of course go down in hisory as one of the most dramatic ever as seconds after this photo was taken, the Ferrari of Wolfgang von Trips and the Lotus of Jim Clark would get tangled up and von Trips would lose his life in the resulting crash.
Going through the cars in the picture, starting at the bottom, we see the following drivers:
It is amazing to see that only 1 (Sir Jack Brabham) out of the above 9 drivers is still alive today...
This photo measures a staggering 12 x 9.5 inches.
It is in mint condition for its age.
Please note that this photo is too big for our scanner so we had to digitally "stitch" two scans together to be able to present the total image. The horizontal line at the bottom of the image is a result of that. This is NOT visible in the actual photo!
The back carries the photographer's stamp.
