The upcoming Bonhams Goodwood Revival Auction 2012, held Saturday 15th September, offers racing enthusiasts the chance to purchase a unique work of art that combines a moment in racing history and an iconic feature of childhood.
The artwork, measuring 6.35m wide by 3.3m tall, represents a life-sized model of the Aston Martin DBR1 that won the 1959 Le Mans 24-Hour Endurance Race, broken up into kit form and fixed to a frame in the style of the famous ‘Airfix’ models built by many in childhood.
