This meticulously researched and edited photographic essay captures an era of spectacular Manufacturers Championship competition. In addition to covering the major manufacturers, Winged Sports Cars and Enduring Innovation explores a fascinating supporting cast of smaller-displacement cars, specialty builders, and “one-offs.” Many of the great drivers, team leaders, and constructors are revealed in compelling portraits.

János Wimpffen, author of the critically acclaimed Time and Two Seats and Open Roads and Front Engines weaves each image into the context of that season’s racing and the various themes of the era. Most of these photographs have never been published before, and each was personally selected by the author during his visits to archives throughout the world.

Also available: The Publisher’s Edition of Winged Sports Cars and Enduring Innovation. A numbered series limited to 300. Information on signatories and pricing to be announced as soon as details are made firm.
