EDITORS COMMENTS
25-year-old Stirling Moss of Great Britain made history yesterday as he became the first Englishman to triumph in the prestigious 1,000-mile road race, Mille Miglia. This print captures Moss's momentous achievement during the motor race that spanned across the breathtaking mountains and plains of Northern Italy. With sheer determination and skill, Moss conquered the challenging course in a record-breaking time of 10 hours, 7 minutes, and 48 seconds. Behind the wheel of his powerful three-litre German Mercedes, Moss showcased his exceptional talent by maintaining an astonishing average speed of over 124 mph along a thrilling fifty-six-mile stretch between Cremona and Mantura. Incredibly, there were moments when he even reached an exhilarating top speed of 200 mph. This remarkable image showcases Moss adorned in his racing uniform with a crash helmet securely fastened on his head. His goggles reflect both focus and intensity as he navigates through this high-speed adventure. The car itself is a marvel to behold - its spoked wheels spinning rapidly while its headlights pierce through the darkness. Dated May 2nd, 1955, this timeless photograph serves as a testament to Stirling Moss's extraordinary accomplishment in motor racing history. It encapsulates not only his groundbreaking victory but also embodies the spirit of courage and passion that drives these daring sportsmen.
