The 1980 Le Mans poster is part of the "Early Sponsorship and Advertising" era in Le Mans posters and which lasted from 1975 to 1980.
This poster is based on a color illustration by artist Charles Pascarel who found inspiration in the world of the comic strip and shows a great atmospheric artist's rendition of the 1979 winning Porsche 935 K3 of Klaus Ludwig and Bill & Don Whittington battling it out with a BMW M1.
