AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A rare and meticulously curated vintage collector’s album dedicated to European motorsport, Formula 1, and motorcycle racing from the 1950s and 1960s.
This lot features an extraordinary collection of 26 authentic Real Photo Postcards (RPPC) published by the renowned Dutch motor racing publisher «Motor, Den Haag» (MOTOR - FOTO - SERIE). All postcards are printed on genuine silver gelatin photographic paper ("Echte Foto"), offering outstanding clarity, contrast, and period detail.
Key Highlights of the Collection:
Formula 1 & Grand Prix Europe 1962 (Zandvoort): Exceptional original action shots of motorsport legends, including Graham Hill (BRM – Race Winner), Jim Clark (Lotus-Climax), Bruce McLaren (Cooper-Climax), John Surtees (Lola-Climax), Dan Gurney (Porsche), Phil Hill (Ferrari), and Innes Ireland.
Historical Documentation: Includes a remarkable period handwritten index page detailing the full official classification of the 1962 European Grand Prix at Zandvoort, listing race times, retired drivers (e.g., Jack Brabham, Ricardo Rodríguez), and the fastest lap set by Bruce McLaren.
Motorcycle Racing & TT Assen (1950s–1960s): Iconic shots of World Champions and racing icons such as Keith Campbell (1957 350cc World Champion), Libero Liberati (1957 500cc World Champion on Gilera), Carlo Ubbiali, Tarquinio Provini, Cecil Sandford, Moto Kitano (Honda), and Ernst Degner (MZ). Also includes dramatic sidecar (Grand Prix Sidecar) and motocross/scrambler competition photos.
Mounting & Preservation Notice (Crucial for Collectors):
NOT GLUED: None of the postcards are glued to the pages. Every single card is held safely in place using classic vintage photo corner mounts (foto-hoekjes).
REMOVABLE: All postcards can be easily removed from the album without any risk of damage, preserving the clean reverses with publisher stamps («Uitgave: Motor, Den Haag»).
Condition & Physical Details:
Postcards: Excellent vintage condition with sharp focus and rich tonal range. No glue residue on backings.
Album: Bound in an authentic vintage fabric cover featuring a charming Paris-themed mid-century print. Black paper pages with glassine interleaving sheets to protect photo surfaces.
Dimensions: Standard vintage album format (approx. 20 × 28 cm).
A truly complete, historical, and pristine artifact for serious collectors of Formula 1 memorabilia, Zandvoort history, and vintage motorsport photo postcards.
