Irish Grand Prix 1930 – Tim Birkin, Malcolm Campbell, Archie Frazer Nash, Rudolf Carracciola and others

£1,500.00

Exceptionally rare card from the Irish Grand Prix held at Phoenix Park Dublin, 18th and 19th July 1930. Signed by several drivers of the pre-war era including Tim Birkin (1896 – 1933) – Bentley,  Malcolm Campbell (1885 – 1948) – Mercedes,  Rudolf Carracciola (1901 – 1959) Mercedes (whom won the event),  Kaye Don (1891 – 1981) – Aston Martin,  Archie Frazer Nash (1989 – 1965) – Austin,  Cyril Whitcroft (+) – Riley,  Beris Harcourt-Wood (1902 – 1968), Bertie Kensington-Moir (1899-1961) and Gunnar Poppe (1901 +) – Austin. There are other signatures I cannot recognise, although I believe one is Jean Chassagne (1881 – 1947). Birkin was one of the “Bentley Boys” of the era. A rare combination of early motor racing history.
