It was the 356 that helped the then little-known sports car manufacturer Porsche achieve the cult status it still enjoys today. When customers won the first races with this model in 1951, graphic designer Erich Strenger drew a poster to draw attention to the young company. It showed Porsche winning the classic "24 Hours of Le Mans" in the category up to 1,100 cc.
This was more or less the starting signal for a whole series of posters with which Porsche communicated its more than one hundred victories in various circuit races and on the Grand Prix or rally tracks of the world. However, it is not only the many victories that are remarkable, but also the very own, memorable design language that was developed by Strenger and refined over decades. Many of these posters became coveted and highly traded collector's items.
This calendar continues the tradition of this award-winning graphic and design history, which Porsche maintained after Erich Strenger's death, and presents twelve exquisite motifs. Also included is information on the races portrayed and the racing and road vehicles depicted.
