Vintage 1951 Photo of Ferrari 212 Export Touring Barchetta S/N 0102E Pietro Palmieri Giro delle Calabrie.

This is a tiny, but historically very important, vintage 1951 photo of Ferrari 212 Export 0102E with its then-owner Pietro Palmieri and codriver Vallechi on August 5, 1951 at the start of the Giro delle Calabrie which the duo would finish in 2nd place overall and first-in-class. This was the car's maiden race.

Palmieri raced the car once more after which it was sold to the Fox Studios in Hollywood who had the car rebodied by Autodromo in 1953 and used it in a movie.

The car still sports the Autodromo body today.

The original Touring body seems to have gone lost in the mists of time.

As far as we have been able to check, this is one of the very few, if not the only, known image of 0102E with its original Touring Barchetta body!

A truely unique opportunity to acquire a photograph of 0102E in its original guise.

The photo measures only some 4 x 5.75 cm (overall) and is in excellent condition for its age.

It does not carry any copyright stamps or clues towards the photographer.

Only 1 available.

1951 Ferrari 30 Anni Di Esperienze Brochure.

I have seen this brochure being called "The Holy Grail of Ferrari Brochures"... Maybe that is a little bit over the top but how many of you have actually seen one of these, let alone have it in your collection?

We are very proud to be able to offer this very good (yet fragile!) example of this VERY scarce and famous brochure.

The brochure elaborates on the 3 models that Ferrari produced in those days: 

and next to a good number of drawings, including the famous "photo" of Jim Kimberly, it lists engine and chassis details.

It unfolds to 4 double-sided panes and is in full color.

It is in very good condition, but as mentioned above, has fragile seams of which one has split.

Remember... the Ferrari company as such was only 3 years old at that time yet Enzo was using his experience as race team manger at Alfa Romeo and ownership of Auto Avio Costruzzioni to boost the reputation of Ferrari as a car maker.

Language: Italian

Merritt reference: Page 69.

This is of course a vintage original and we only have 1 available.
