This poster is part of the so-called "Major Illustrators" era in Le Mans posters which lasted from 1954 - 1963 and in which the cream of the crop of French motorsport illustrators such as Geo Ham, Jeudon and Beligond were hired for the design of the race posters.
The 1957 poster was after a color illustration from the hand of Jeudon. The change of illustrator from Geo Ham to Jeudon led to a radically different style. The more modern illustration retains one of the main symbols of the mythic care - the night. The cars have been reduced to blibs on a radar screen.
The race was won by Ron Flockhart and Ivor Bueb in their Jaguar D-Type (S/N XKD606) with a total of 327 laps to their name. In fact, the first 4 places went to Jaguar with their D-Types...

1950's Ferrari Coach Built Upholstry Brush.
This is a 1950's brush which I believe wasn't made or issued by Ferrari themselves but by a 3rd party, most probably a coachbuilder.
It is about 6 inches or 15 cm long.
The base is made of white celluloid with the Ferrari logo in relief on the top.
Good condition for its age.
Would make a GREAT accessory for you vintage Ferrari!
