The decision to know what to buy friends and family seems to get harder each year. Need inspiration, take a look at some unique ideas. A Very Special Gift

This beautifully bound coffee table art book celebrates 75 years since the birth of Formula One, specifically dedicating itself to the ten British drivers that have achieved the ultimate accolade of World Champion, with a foreword written by the 1992World Champion Nigel Mansell.

Award-winning artist Keith Burns’ fabulously dynamic illustrations feature each of these champions of the sport, duelling with their rivals. From the brutally dangerous ‘50s and ‘60s where drivers such as Mike Hawthorn, Graham Hill and the extraordinary Jim Clark faced serious injury or a fiery death as an ever-present reality, through to those competing in the current era, mastered their incredible technological marvels of cars; drivers such as Jenson Button and the multiple title-winning Lewis Hamilton.

Written by motorsport journalist Joe Saward, this 48-page book is available to buy as a standard print-only edition, or alternatively as a Premium edition featuring the ten mounted stamps and two miniature sheets from the associated stamp issues The Birth of Formula One – 75 Years, The British World Champions, Part One and Part Two.

Also Available
