Description from the seller
I am offering the book "Car Racing 1969," published by Cercle d'art, which looks back at motor racing in 1968, drawing on previously unpublished photographic archives from the DPPI agency, founded in 1965.
Experiencing motor racing up close, right in the thick of the action, was the great ambition of a handful of passionate photographers who founded the DPPI agency in 1965.
1969 is therefore naturally the fifth book in the "Car Racing" collection, born from a desire to bring back the sensations of an era that was decidedly anything but ordinary. No one at the time would have disagreed with Ernest Hemingway when he declared, “There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the others are merely games.”
Selected from DPPI’s archives, most of them previously unpublished, the photographs reproduced here are accompanied by comments, memories, and anecdotes from two equally legendary figures: photographer Manou Zurini and journalist Johnny Rives.
The book is in mint condition, and the quality of the photo reproductions is exceptional.
The text is in English and French.
