Side 1:


The Mulsanne Straight, at night

The Preparation - and practice session

Prelude to the Start - The Start and the first lap

The Esses at dusk


Side 2:


The Mulsanne Straight. The fastest part of the circuit - a resigned former - and a drink behind the straw bails

Mulsanne Corner and the Signalling Pits

The Fairground at 10.30pm - and The Esses again.

The Pits at 3.30am

The long haul to victory - and the dead-heat that wasn't


The record itself appears to have only been lightly played although the sleeve has wear as shown. I bought this at Wimbledon Car Boot Sale in July 2015, it was part of a clearance of a huge collection of 1950's and 1960's jazz, mostly big band stuff and this was one of the more interesting records amongst the boxes. I have played the record a couple of times on my system and it sounds great through my Ste-Ma

speakers. I'm listing it now to coincide with Le Mans 2017.


Condition is as shown in the photos which have been taken on a large format to represent the record as faithfully as possible. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.


I will send the LP out in cardboard wall inside an old 12" record mailer, within 3 working days of receiving payment. I frequently dispatch within 1 working day. Payment by Paypal preferred for speed and ease of transaction.


I will send this item by 2nd Class Recorded within the UK and Track and Signed For or Signed For outside the UK. My postal charges are charged accurately at face value with a flat rate of £0.50 added for packaging.  All of my items are weighed accurately after packing and before listing on digital scales. This item weighs 410g.
