IF THERE’S ONE AREA OF COLLECTIBLES that’s as accessible as it is interesting, then it’s posters. They’re generally easy to find and there are so many different sorts: something for everyone.
Formula 1 posters really start in 1950s Monaco. Each year the principality would commission a poster for motoring events like the grand prix or Monte Carlo Rally. One famous artist was Michael Turner. He would visit the race, creating a poster featuring cars of the previous year’s race. Originals are incredibly hard to find as they were so disposable, they only printed a few and most were stapled to trees or glued to fences, but some survive and change hands for thousands of pounds.
