Mercedes-Benz, a name synonymous with luxury and engineering prowess, has a rich history that dates back to the late 19th century. Founded by Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler, the brand has been a pioneer in automotive innovation. By 1955, Mercedes-Benz was well-established as a leading manufacturer in both luxury and racing cars. The 1955 racing season was particularly notable for the Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR, driven by legendary drivers like Juan Manuel Fangio and Stirling Moss. This model dominated the sports car racing scene and was celebrated for its impressive performance and engineering.


The 1955 English Grand Prix, held at the Silverstone circuit, was a pivotal race in the Formula One season. Juan Manuel Fangio, driving a Mercedes-Benz W196, claimed victory, showcasing the car's superior performance and further solidifying Fangio's lead in the championship. This race highlighted the dominance of Mercedes-Benz and Fangio's exceptional driving skills during an outstanding season for the team.


Anton Stankowski (1906-1998) was a pioneering German graphic designer and typographer known for his innovative work in visual communication and design. His groundbreaking approach to visual abstraction and systematic design principles left a lasting impact on modern graphic design, particularly through his influential work with corporate identity and visual branding.

  • If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

  • Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.
