The 1954 Spanish Grand Prix poster, designed by A. Garcia, is a striking tribute to the excitement and prestige of mid-century motorsport. Held on October 24 at the historic Circuito de Pedralbes, the event marked the final race of the 1954 World Championship. The poster prominently features the iconic Alfa Romeo 159 Alfetta, a symbol of the era’s racing prowess. Sponsored by the Hon. City Hall, the day's competitions included multiple prestigious events, such as the Gran Premio de España and the World Championship Final. In an intense 80-lap battle, Ferrari’s Mike Hawthorn emerged victorious, followed by Luigi Musso in a Maserati and Juan Manuel Fangio in his Mercedes. Capturing the glamour, danger, and exhilaration of Formula One’s golden age, this poster remains a timeless piece of racing history.
