Coupe d’Eure-et-Loir Karting Poster HAFA Motor Oil French c.1960 Original Lithograph
This original French karting poster, issued circa late 1950s to early 1960s, promotes the Coupe d’Eure-et-Loir held in Boisville-la-Saint-Père and exemplifies the bold graphic language of mid-century motorsport advertising. Printed as a color lithograph, the design features a dynamic red line illustration of a driver in a go-kart, paired with striking typographic elements referencing “DOPEY” motor oil and race details for both 2-temps and 4-temps engines. The composition balances kinetic energy with clean, modernist layout principles typical of French commercial graphics of the period. Professionally linen-backed and presented in excellent condition, the poster retains strong color saturation and crisp line work. As an early karting event advertisement, it reflects the emerging popularity of grassroots motorsport culture in postwar France.
