A rather attractive poster by Castrol Motor Oil commemorating a pair of Ferrari accomplishments in the US in 1955. First is Sherwood [Johnston] winning at the SCCA National in Cumberland, Maryland driving a Ferrari 375 MM. Secondly is Bob Said's speed record on the Daytona Beach road course with his 1954 Ferrari Formula 1 Grand Prix car. Said’s average speed was 170.538 mph. Notably, both cars were lubricated with Castrol, according to the poster.
