THE GRAND SPORT SERIES
I just made that name up but the following photos fit that description as they are negatives that I have chosen for their quality and style, they are the BEST! I do not own these negatives, they reside in Europe so when I order photos from them sometimes it takes up to six months to receive them.
I have sold dozens of these photos at races and shows, they all measure 12 X 16 and are matted with archival mat board to 16 X 20. These images are available in Europe but they are printed on Resin Coated paper over there. I pay the extra to have them on Fiber Based paper as the blacks are blacker and they will last indefinitely compared to the Resin paper.
A couple of catalogs ago I printed little thumbnail photos of some of these but it took too much space and was a real pain to move around. I can and will send digital photos of each of these by e-mail if you ask.
The price is $160 on each of these and shipping is now $10 on 16 X 20 photos in the U.S., still at cost overseas.
(GS1) Peter Collins, Ferrari, Dutch GP 1958, 1/4ing front view, action, car well out of shape, crowd behind. $160
(GS2) Elevated rear view of George Eyston, MG K3, Brooklands, a posed photo, George is looking back at the camera over his shoulder, car on the rough concrete of Brooklands, wonderful! $160
(GS3) The Clement/Watney Bentley Speed Six, LeMans 1930, rounding a corner, 1/4ing front view, two men peering through a fence in the foreground, policemen, spectators, houses in background. This is a great photo, I have one left and the negative has been sold out from under me so this is the last one. $160
(GS4) John Cobb, Napier-Railton Special, Brooklands, action 1/4ing front view, ALL FOUR WHEELS OFF THE GROUND! At the famous bump, chilling! $160

FRAMING! The above photos deserve to be framed and I see too many black and white photos framed incorrectly so I am going to give you my humble opinion on the subject and you can take it from there. (I spent 5 years in art school and this is what I learned!)
In a word; METAL FRAMES. They do not leach toxic gases that can affect a photograph like wood or plastic.
GRAY. Sometimes called gun metal gray, metallic gray, etc. This is the best color to use on black and white photos as black frames (many peoples choice) takes away from the blackest part of the photo thus making a stronger statement than the photograph. Silver can be used as an alternative to gray.
BROWN or GOLD. Sepia photos should be framed with a brown or gold frame, I much prefer brown but it is your choice. (I hate gold frames so just dont tell me you did it.)
Finally, use UV protective glass over the photos, it is more expensive but the photos last much longer when displayed.

EPHEMERA (THE RARE BITS!) (10% discount on two (2) or more items in AUT or EPH catagory when total exeeds $300 except where noted)
(EPH55) Youve read the books, you know the story. The 1933 Grand Prix of Tripoli had a lottery attached to it, the lottery winners were announced too early, one winner assigned to each driver entered. Varzi (some say) made contact with his winner and made a deal, if he would split the lottery winnings with the drivers Varzi would see to it that the drivers would let him win. Nuvolari led most of the race only to be passed by Varzi while he was in the pits. He then chased down Varzi and passed him. But Varzi repassed on the last corner to win. The whole truth of this race is still unknown. Now you can own an actual artifact from that day, a handbill that advertises the Lottery in Tripoli in 1933. It measures 11 X 16 and is folded 4 ways. It is a greenish black ink printed on cream paper, minor pencil writing to the front, otherwise excellent. We will not see one of these again. $175. No discounts apply.
