Back when we started The Motorsport Collector in June of 1985, most of our featured product lines were Limited Edition art prints, many of which were autographed by the world's top racing drivers. We believed then, and we believe now that autographed limited edition artwork was one of the most effective and beautiful ways to preserve the history of our great sport. In addition, we feel that signed prints are among the most satisfying racing 'collectibles' an enthusiast could acquire. Over the years, our business has diversified into other areas, but my first love has always been the work of the world's top racing artists. With the launch of this page, I hope to focus attention on TMC's large collection of motorsport art and the latest releases of our favorite artists.

Colin Carter's latest painting, 'The Final Victory' commemorates Ayrton Senna's win at the 1993 Australian Grand Prix in the McLaren Ford MP4/8. The image is available as a signed and numbered (500) 28" x 36" litho on paper ($150.00) or as a giant 3' x 4' giclee on canvas ($995.00). A maximum of 100 signed and numbered giclees will be produced. Call for details.

MAY 4, 2004 UPDATE

In our opinion, 'Andretti Champion' is the nicest and perhaps most collectible serigraph from Randy Owens in several years. Produced in an edition of 135 to commemorate the 25th Anniversary of Mario Andretti's 1978 World Championship, several copies remain at the issue price of $325.00. Each copy is signed by Mario Andretti.

'Indycar Champions' by Alan Fearnley was published at the height of 'Mansell-mania' in 1993. The edition of 1000 prints (signed and numbered by the Artist) was available in several configurations. The entire edition was signed by 1992 World Champion / 1993 CART Champion Nigel Mansell and most other copies were also signed by car owner Carl Haas. A few very expensive copies were also signed by Paul Newman. This particular print (945/1000) is signed by Mansell only. We believe it was originally owned by Carl Haas, who received a small quantity of prints in return for his signature when the print was published. Most of Fearnley's pit scene prints from that period were quick sell outs, and 'Indycar Champions' was no different. If you click the photo below left, you'll see a close up of the center of the image. Car owners Paul Newman and Carl Haas can be seen at the top right of the image. The photo below right shows Mansell's signature. $450.00.

We recently acquired two original theatre posters from racing films of the 1950's. Both are 'half sheet' posters, measuring 22" x 28" on heavy stock and neither has been folded..

Above: 'Johnny Dark' was Tony Curtis's racing epic released in 1954. Although the poster has a small tear on the left border and a bit of damage in the lower left corner, the image is near mint and the colors are extremely bright for a 50 year old poster. Inquire.

Below: Roger Corman's 'The Fast and the Furious' was another 1954 racing film, starring John Ireland and Dorothy Malone and filmed at the Pebble Beach International Sports Car Races. Nice graphics on this one as well, with a red Jaguar crashing through a fence and the legend 'Killer...Outlaw...Death Driver!' The ideal addition to any office or garage. $225.00 unframed.

MARCH 25, 2004 UPDATE

Since the early 80's, thousands of racing enthusiasts around the world have collected the Limited Edition prints of English artist Alan Fearnley. Fearnley's first release (before Grand Prix Sportique began publishing his work in 1983), was 'Alan Jones', published in 1980. It is among the most rare and sought after prints in the Fearnley portfolio. The scene is Brands Hatch and the 1980 British Grand Prix, which was won by Alan Jones in a Williams FW07 on his way to the 1980 World Driving Championship. The entire edition was signed by Alan Jones and a small (unknown) quantity was also signed by Sir Frank Williams. This particular print (759/850) is signed by Jones and Williams. It also carries an beautiful, original Fearnley pencil remarque and has recently been reframed. A rare opportunity to own a significant piece of motorsport art!

The Iceman Cometh

by Colin Carter

Kimi Raikkonen salutes his team as he claims his first F1 victory at the 2003 Malaysian Grand Prix. An impressive season saw him achieve one victory, seven, second-place finishes and two further podiums, taking his championship challenge right up to the final race of the season at Suzuka, eventually losing out to Michael Schumacher by just two points. The "Iceman" is certainly one to watch as he continues his world championship ambitions in 2004.

Limited to only 500 copies for sale worldwide. each copy personally signed, sealed and numbered by the artist

Size 900mm x 700mm

'Monaco Grand Prix' by Randy Owens

Original Serigraph - 115/135

Professionally Framed

$7,800.00

Perhaps Randy Owens' most famous serigraph (along with LeMans-The Big Ride) is 'Monaco Grand Prix, produced in an edition of 135 original serigraphs in 1989 and signed by the late Ayrton Senna, Jean Alesi, Gerhard Berger and Ricardo Patrese. It is one of only a few certified Limited Editions signed by Senna, which has increased the art's desireability and value tremendously over the past 10 years since Senna's death. They are rarely offered on the secondary market, so we're pleased to offer print 115/135 of 'Monaco Grand Prix', custom framed for with a laquered black wood moulding and tasteful white with black double mat.

We've just acquired a copy of 'Winners' by Nicholas A. Watts. The limited edition of 850 signed and numbered prints features a Rothmans Porsche 956 and was hand signed by Derek Bell and Stefan Bellof and released just before Bellof's death in 1985.

1/23/04 Update - Several of you have expressed interest in this print and we currently have a waiting list if other copies become available.

 

In June of 2003, we conducted a private autograph session with 1961 World Champion Phil Hill at Watkins Glen, NY. Among the items we had signed were copies of 'Ferrari Team Mates' by Alan Fearnley, a limited edition of 850 artist signed prints published several years ago. Two copies were sent back to England for Alan Fearnley to remarque. They arrived back here just before the Holidays and one copy remains (see above). The original Fearnley painting/print features Ferrari team drivers Phil Hill and Wolfgang von Trips standing next to the #40 Ferrari 156 Sharknose in the Monaco pitlane. In his remarque, Fearnley has drawn a side view of the #36 Sharknose in the tint border of the print. This print is available for $395.00 plus shipping. We also have a few Phil Hill signed copies of 'Ferrari Team Mates' in stock for $175.00 plus shipping. We can commission a remarque on any Alan Fearnley print for $220.00. Call for details.
