Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Steve McQueen Lemans photo book

[Doug & Terri (dnt]

Nice catch Michael – I have been watching for this on Abebooks.com = = = they have one copy - $110 plus shipping from UK.  A bit out of my budget.  I always try to come home from some speed event with a book or two not only as  a reminder but as a good catch.  I depend on the Monterey Historics and the terrible dusty infield tent shops with the smells of greasy brats on grill and roaring cars.  Yummy.

Just spent the day at Le Circuit Mont-Tremblant for "Le sommet des légendes". Bunch of old Formula 1 cars (Ferrari T5, Alboreto's Benetton, Lotus 78, Jackie Stewart's Tyrrell, BRM, Shadow, Jody Scheckter's Walter Wolf, 1980 Candy Tyrrell that was for sale, etc, etc. 1972 Ferrari 312PB. Lots of old INDY cars too (Ralt, Lola, March, etc). Ferrari 1962 250 (the owner clearly didn't want that one to look new. I think it had the original paint on it. It had cracks all over it. It gave it a lot of character. Group C AUDI that won everything at LeMans for many years in the early 2000s. Some very very old cars too. 1930 Alfa Romeo with the Ferrari shield on it. This guy shows up every summer. Same with Mr.Bueller's Villeneuve T5.

 

Anyway there was a little table with DVDs and books. This one caught my attention because I had never heard of that book and I'm a big Steve McQueen fan. "BEHIND LE MANS THE FILM IN PHOTOGRAPHS" by Michael Keyser. 200 pages of black and white pictures (no colors) taken during the filming of the movie. Once I opened it at home I saw it was First Edition 2011. I can't believe I missed that one. ISBN 978-0-615-52435-1. I paid $50.00.

 

Another great racing day. For those of you who has been to Mont-Tremblant you know how great this track is.
