1964 Le Mans 24 Hours Pits Ticket - Wilkie Wilkinson.
EXTREMELY RARE!
This is the original badge worn by Wilkie Wilkinson (co-founder of Ecurie Ecosse) during the 1964 24 Heures du Mans.
For this race, Wilkie was present to co-manage the Maranello Consessionaires entries which consisted of the # 14 Ferrari 330P S/N 0818 (destroyed in 1966) of Graham Hill & Joakim Bonnier which finished second and the # 25 Ferrari 250 GTO S/N 4399GT (rebodied to "250 GTO 64" style, now resides in the UK) of Innes Ireland & Tony Maggs who finished 6th.
A GREAT piece of Le Mans history that came from the estate of Wilkie Wilkinson!
This is a vintage 1964 photo sequence of the Ferrari 250 GTO 64 of Pedro Rodrigues, David Piper and Mike Gammino right after it spun at the 1964 running of the Sebring 12 Hours.
The car in question is S/N 5571GT which survives to this day.
The photos clearly show the # 30 250 GTO having spun and bring the Porsche 904 # 39 into trouble (looks like there was some contact there) as well as the the # 12 Cobra.
Each of these 3 photos measure some 10 x 8 inches and is in mint condition.
The photos are marked with Walter R. Haessner stamps on the back.
The photos are only sold as a single lot.
These are vintage prints, i.e. printed shortly after the original images were captured on film.
Only 1 set available.
Vintage 1965 photo of Ferrari 250 GTO # 4491GT & 250 GTO 64 # 4399GT - 1000 KM Nurburgring.
This is a vintage photo of TWO Ferrari's GTO in ONE shot!
It was taken during the 1965 1000KM race at the Nurburgring and shows the # 64 Ferrari 250 GTO (S/N 4491) of Peter Sutcliffe which he shared with "Lumsden" for this race and who made it to first-in-class and 15th overall and the # 65 Ferrari 250 GTO 64 (S/N 4399) of Gordon Durham which was raced by Salmon / Kerrison and who were forced to retire with engine trouble.
Both cars have an interesting history...
S/N 4399GT started its life as a "normal" 250 GTO and was rebodied to "64" shape in late 1963 by Scaglietti. It seems to reside in the UK nowadays.
S/N 4491GT also started out as a normal 250 GTO and was originally owned by David Piper who had the roofline and windscreen lowered which is clearly visible in this picture. It was changed back to a standard 250 GTO roofline by its current owner in the early 1980's. It now seems to reside in Italy.
The photo measures some 24 x 18 cm or 9 x 7 inches.
The back carries the photographer's stamp.
This is a vintage print, i.e. printed shortly after the original image was captured on film.
