Default Posters and more expensive fine art prints

Not sure if this is the right place to mention artwork but in my experience some people like to put a poster or painting in the same room as their model car collection.

Here’s some art available on Cobra, Shelby , etc. that come in two forms-


-An inexpensive 15” x 20” poster made to promote a Shelby /Cobra book or larger format fine art. These have the name of the book on them or some other message but still might be considered collectible due to low production and the fact no store carries them.

--A 22" 30" fine art print on 22” x 30” Arches watercolor paper (140#/300gsm) these with no lettering and each these signed and numbered by the artist up to a maximum of 250 per image.

The website below shows the artwork. The ones on canvas mentioned on the website are being phased out in favor of prints on watercolor paper.

Other artwork featuring Shelbys/Cobras/GT40s can be found on the this webpage if you have the time to look up each and every artist

Good hunting!

Wallace,
It's a great topic, and fits in perfectly here.
I have a bit of a collection myself, but the theme I have leans more towards LeMans.

I'm a sucker for Astons and Ferraris as well as Cobras. I have a long out of print Michael Turner print of the Shelby/Salvadori LeMans wining Aston DBR1. It was signed by Salvadori and Turner when I bought it, but I had Shelby sign it at Silverstone back in the early 90s or so. He told me then that he had the original painting.

I'm also a fan of Nicholas Watts. I have a bunch of his, mostly LeMans winners.








Steve
