THE INDY 500 GOLDEN JUBILEE RACE IN 1966 WAS BILLED AS - BRITAINS BASH AT THE 'BRICKYARD' AND SO IT WAS AS THE BRITS WENT ON TO TAKE VICTORY THROUGH "TRIPLE CROWN" CHAMPION GRAHAM HILL THE GOLDEN JUBILEE RACE WAS BEAMED LIVE INTO UK CINEMAS. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1966 UK ONLY THEATR…E PROGRAM ALONG WITH A SELDOM SEEN UK ONLY ODEON CINEMA LOBBY CARD USED FOR ADVERTISING THE RACE TO CINEMA GOERS. LOT DESCRIPTION, PLEASE READ The historic Golden Jubilee Indianapolis 500 race of May 30th 1966 was spectacular in every sense of the word. Billed by the American organizers as Britain's Bash At The 'Brickyard'. English rookie Graham Hill would go on to claim victory at the 50th Anniversary race driving the #24 Lola-Ford T90, often referred to as the Red Ball Special. Hill was actually a late replacement for principal driver Walt Hansgen and won the race as a rookie for the John Mecom Jr. Racing Team, finishing ahead of second placed Jim Clark. For the first time ever the entire event was beamed live from the Brickyard into cinemas across the UK. Graham Hill would go on to make history as the only race driver to ever win the famous "Triple Crown" of Motorsport - winning the Indy 500, the Monaco Grand Prix and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Rank published a special theatre program to accompany the historic event and also publicized the race in selected cinema foyers. This LOT comprises TWO ORIGINAL ITEMS FROM THE FIRST INSTALLMENT OF GRAHAM HILL'S HISTORIC TRIPLE CROWN. THIS IS A FEAT ONLY HILL HAS EVER ACHIEVED, MAKING THESE ITEMS ALL THE MORE HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT. 1) The original UK ONLY Theatre/Race program, accompanied by 2) An original UK ONLY Lobby Card from the Odeon Cinema UK - Ideal for framing BIOGRAPHY Race Statistics Winner: Graham Hill (Lola-Ford T90) Pole Sitter: Mario Andretti (165.889 mph) Starters: 33 Finishers: 7 (Fewest in Indy history) Laps Led: Jackie Stewart (40), Lloyd Ruby (68), Graham Hill (10) The "Greatest" First-Lap Crash: Immediately after the green flag, a massive accident involved 16 cars (nearly half the field). 11 cars were eliminated instantly. A.J. Foyt famously escaped by scaling the catch fence, injuring his hand in the process. Fewest Finishers Ever: Due to the initial crash and subsequent mechanical failures, only seven cars were running at the end of the race - the fewest in Indy 500 history. Graham Hill's Rookie Victory: Graham Hill won in his very first attempt. He became the first rookie winner since 1927 and remains the only driver to complete the Triple Crown of Motorsport (winning the Indy 500, Monaco Grand Prix, and 24 Hours of Le Mans). Jackie Stewart's Heartbreak: Rookie Jackie Stewart dominated the second half, leading by over a lap. With only 8-10 laps remaining, a broken oil scavenge pump forced him to retire while leading. Despite not finishing, he was voted Rookie of the Year over Hill. DIMENSIONS THEATRE/RACE PROGRAM Sized approximately 8" x 10" (12 pages) Approximately 60 grams prior to packaging.

Aggiungi al carrelloOfficial printed program and original scorecard from the 1947 Indianapolis 500, held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, representing primary documentation of one of the most debated finishes in the early history of American open-wheel racing. The offering includes the complete official race program together with a contemporary…scorecard, preserving both the pre-race structure and the recorded progress of the event. The 1947 race is particularly notable for a widely discussed team-order controversy involving drivers Mauri Rose and Bill Holland of Lou Moore's team. During the closing stages, pit signals reportedly instructed Holland to reduce speed to preserve his position to the finish. Rose, disregarding the signal, accelerated to overtake Holland in the final laps. Holland, believing he maintained a lap advantage, did not contest the pass, allowing Rose to assume the lead and secure victory. The incident has since been cited in racing historiography as an early and influential example of team communication ambiguity affecting race outcomes. The race was further marked by a fatal accident involving driver Shorty Cantlon, situating the event within the broader context of mid-20th-century motorsport risk and safety conditions. Mauri Rose's finishing time of 4:17:52.17 ranked among the fastest Indianapolis 500 results recorded to that date, underscoring both the competitive intensity and mechanical capabilities of the period. The program provides structured information on entrants, drivers, and race organization, while the accompanying scorecard reflects real-time engagement with the event as experienced by a contemporary spectator. Together, they document not only the race itself but also the practices of attendance, record-keeping, and spectator participation associated with major American sporting events in the immediate postwar period. Condition is very good. Program complete with no tears; minor staining to cover. Scorecard well preserved with expected light handling.

Aggiungi al carrelloIndianapolis 500 photograph archive. 1962. This group documents the 46th running of the Indianapolis 500 held May 30, 1962, preserving race action and spectator experience at a moment when American open-wheel racing was undergoing a shift from front-engine to rear-engine design. The photographs include views of the No. 5 Watson-…Offenhauser driven by Rodger Ward, the race winner, recording one of the final winning performances of the traditional front-engine roadster before its displacement later in the decade. The archive establishes the Indianapolis 500 as both a technical competition and a large-scale public event, with attention to car design, track conditions, and the scale of audience participation. Archive of fourteen vernacular silver gelatin black-and-white photographs, each measuring approximately 3.25 x 4.5 inches, with two prints bearing processing dates "JUN 62." The images show race cars in motion on the track, including Ward's No. 5 entry and other competitors associated with drivers such as Len Sutton, with visible numbering and bodywork details. Several photographs are taken from infield and spectator vantage points, combining close views of cars navigating turns and straightaways with wider views of grandstands filled with spectators. Motion blur in some images conveys speed, while sharper exposures preserve mechanical and visual detail. Additional photographs document the crowd, with men in hats and women in summer attire seated in the stands, reading programs and watching the race. Multiple images include the Goodyear blimp positioned above the speedway, indicating the event's scale and its integration into mid-century sports media and sponsorship. The 1962 Indianapolis 500 occurred during a transitional period in racing technology, as European rear-engine cars began to challenge established American designs, leading to rapid change in the years immediately following. At the same time, the race functioned as a major national gathering, drawing large audiences and media attention that reinforced its position within American sports culture. Fine condition with strong tonal clarity; minor edge wear from handling; no significant defects; two photographs dated "JUN 62." A focused visual record of a specific race and the broader cultural and technological context of American motorsport in the early 1960s.
