NEW POSTER

UNLIMITED BEAUTY & SPEED

Featuring unlimiteds which raced between 1955 and 1960, this 18"x24" poster on 100# glossy paper is the second in this poster series of historic unlimiteds. 

This poster presents over forty color images of the unlimiteds from the late 1950s, with special emphasis on the Miss Thriftway and Hawaii Kai III, two of the winningest boats of this era.  All of the boats which won races are included, as well as some more unusual attempts at unlimited raceboat design. 

UNLIMITED BEAUTY & SPEED is now available.  The retail price is $15.00, but available on the website for $9.99 plus $4.95 S&H.  No added S&H for additional posters or programs.   To purchase contact me at TheProf2@aol.com.
