1960 Lemans Poster by Thivillier original rare race version

The 24 Hours of Le Mans posters traditionally featured the winning cars from the previous year, as they were printed before the race took place. In this poster, you can see the Ferraris that dominated the decade. There were two versions of this poster, each with different text at the bottom. The French government used one version for tourism promotion, while this version was created specifically for the race, making it the more desirable and rare edition. It remains in excellent condition.

The 1960 24 Hours of Le Mans, held on June 25-26, marked Ferrari’s first overall victory at the race, beginning a decade of dominance. Olivier Gendebien and Paul Frère secured the win in a Ferrari 250 TR59/60 (#11), entered by Scuderia Ferrari. Their steady performance in difficult conditions ensured victory, covering 4,217 km (2,621 miles).

This race also saw an effort by American team owner Briggs Cunningham, who entered three Corvettes. Though fast, they faced mechanical issues, with one managing to finish 8th overall. Heavy rain contributed to multiple crashes and retirements, further shaping the outcome. Aston Martin, the defending champion, struggled with reliability, leaving Ferrari and Porsche to battle early on before Ferrari took control. Another Ferrari 250 TR finished second, solidifying Ferrari’s growing dominance in endurance racing.
