A rare photographic postcard, depicting the portrait image of Manfred posing whilst wearing his racing suit and goggles. Measuring approximately 9x14cm, the postcard is signed by him in a light blue ink. Manfred von Brauchitsch (15 August 1905 - February 5, 2003) was a German auto racing driver who drove for Mercedes-Benz in the famous "Silver Arrows" of Grand Prix motor racing in the 1930s. Although an excellent driver in his own right (who had reasonable success), he struggled with bad luck, and was overshadowed by his more successful Mercedes-Benz team-mates Rudolf Caracciola and Hermann Lang.
