A rare yearbook/programme publication produced by the 'Automobile Club Brescia' & collected at this 1000 mile endurance race held on 28-29 April 1957. Features glorious photographic cover artwork featuring the No. 548 Ferrari being wheeled onto the starting line by a mechanic in blue overalls. Fair original condition, with some light damage/tears to the cover & wear to the spine.
This programme is of particular significance, as it was the last time the Mille Miglia was run as a competitive road race. The reason behind this was two fatal crashes,
the first being that of a 4.2-litre Ferrari in 1957 that took the lives of the Spanish driver Alfonso de Portago, his co-driver/navigator Edmund Nelson, and nine spectators, at the village of Guidizzolo, while the second crash took place in Brescia & took the life of Joseph Göttgens, driving his Triumph TR3.
