Lime Rock Park Race Poster (Ca. 1950's)

Lime Rock Park advertising poster for an SCCA sanctioned auto race. (Circa 1959). Lime Rock opened in 1957 on the site of a former sand and gravel quarry and the original track layout has remained ever since. Set in bucolic Northwest Connecticut, the park has hosted most every major American road racing sanctioning body including the American Le Mans Series, IMSA, Grand-Am, NASCAR, SCCA, Trans AM, and World Challenge. Notable celebrities who have raced at Lime Rock include Paul Newman, James Garner and Dickie Smothers. The origin of this poster is somewhat of a mystery. "Globe Poster - Baltimore" is printed at the bottom of the poster but our research has not been able to definitively verify whether it is indeed a Globe poster and/or whether it was printed in the 50's or sometime later the 70's.
