Sobre este artículo
Terre Haute, IN: Terre Haute Fairgrounds Speedway, 1958. A fantastic piece of Midwest dirt track racing history, SIGNED by legendary drivers A.J. Foyt, Eddie Sachs. Elmer George, Tommy Hinnershitz, Ed Elisian , and Joe Barzda, with 2 more signatures too faint for me to decipher. SIGNED in ink front cover by Foyt, George, Sachs, and Hinnershitz, in pencil ( right margin) by Barzda, at rear cover in ink by Ed Elisian, and at his photo on page 7 in ink again by George. A.J. Foyt- the first 4-time winner of the Indy 500, a true racing legend. Eddie Sachs- known as the "Clown Prince of Auto Racing", who was killed in the 1964 Indy 500 won by Foyt, Elmer George- who retired from racing in 1963 and then served as vice-president of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Tommy Hinnershitz, "The Flying Dutchman" one of the most popular sprint-car drivers in racing history. Ed Elisian - who was killed in a USAC Champ car race crash at Milwaukee just a year later, in 1959. Joe Barzda - whose career spanned 1934-1959, and who quit racing in 1959 after the fatal crash of Van Johnson and later along with his brother operated the Californian Speed and Sport Shop in New Jersey, fielding cars in many races. This SIGNED program comes with The Indianapolis Times Speedway Extra 5th Edition newspaper, dated Saturday, May 30, 1964, headlined "A.J. FOYT WINS '500' - 7-Car Crash Kills Sachs, McDonald" ( Very Good, paper uniformly browned) . The program is about Very Good, 12 pp. stapled, wrinkling and creasing, light soiling, 6" lateral tear p.3. Day of race original pencil notations pp. 10 and 11 for the 4 heat finishes, with car number, driver name and place in that heat, and some lap times. These were either sprint or midget races- program doesn't state what races or the month and day of the races, just the year 1958. The program includes standings and results for 1957 for both car types, as well as stories and photos. The six signatures that are clearly legible are all legends of 1950's midget and sprint car racing, which were the proving grounds for many Indy 500 and NASCAR racers, and as a group are unique and RARE.. SIGNED. First Edition. Pamphlet. Very Good. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
