Description

Magnificent 1935 Ferrari letter to racing legend Tazio Nuvolari, preparing a royal tour of his Modena factory

Rare TLS in Italian, signed “Ferrari,” one page, 7 x 10.75, colorful Ferrari letterhead, April 11, 1935. Letter to racing legend Tazio Nuvolari. In part (translated): “Having received confidential information that in all probability Saturday 13th inst. we will have the coveted visit from HRH the Duke of Spoleto, President of the RACI, I pray to be in Modena in the morning in order to present it to the venerable Prince.” In fine condition. Prince Aimone, Duke of Spoleto, was the president of the Reale Automobile Club d’Italia, and it seems that Ferrari was eager to give the distinguished guest a tour of his factory in Modena, where he founded his legendary automobile company. A wonderful letter rife with important associations, especially desirable because of its spectacular Ferrari letterhead. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
