DESCRIPTION:
Enhancing appreciation of Rodolfo Mailanders insightful images is commentary by the photographer himself and by Ludvigsen, who has been a friend of Mailander for almost 50 years. Rodolfo Mailander here presents his intimate portraits of this stirring era with the help of his friend Karl Ludvigsen, whose world famous Library holds the Mailander archive. A treat for the Ferrari enthusiast is a tabulation of serial numbers of the cars illustrated, provided by renowned Ferrari expert Marcel Massini.. Both men contribute introductions that set the scene for this story of the formative years of one of the greatest automotive marques. Be it a road car or racing car, no automobile can match Ferrari for sheer iconic glamour and excitement. One man had unique access to the company, its people and its products during the years from 1950 to 1955 when Ferrari surged from a brash newcomer to a dominant force in Grand Prix and sports cars

BEST NEW FERRARI BOOK! This is a unique book. Excellent is the only word that comes to mind. I particularly like how the photos illustrate the people and the surroundings for each race venue. They are much more evocative than the usual grainy images of cars on the track. You can not go wrong with this one.
