With Carroll Shelby's passing on May 10, 2012, these pieces now take on even greater significance!
Please note that we are below offering three (3) Danny Day 1/4 Artist Proofs automotive artwork as a single purchase only.
They are being offered as a set of three due to the unusual nature of all being #1 of the proof set. This is a rare and unusual offering,
and it represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire these valuable collector prints from one source.
Our current automotive artwork offerings are as below detailed. These pieces by artist Danny Day are extremely rare and very unusual as they are Artist Proofs and represent outstanding value. They are part of a private collection.
An Artist Proof is known as a print intended for the artist's personal use.
It is common practice to reserve approximately ten percent of an edition as artist's proofs although this
figure can be higher. Artist's proofs can be distinguished by the abbreviation AP or it can
be spelled out on the work. It is a highly regarded classification in the art community.
Please pay particular attention to the fact that these are Danny Day's Artist Proofs
and are very low numbered. These are each #1 of the series!
The medium for the three (3) Artist Proofs is Giclee' on canvas
If you are a serious automotive artwork collector these two pieces represent
a rare and outstanding opportunity to share history with original signatures.
A visit to Danny Day's website will confirm the number of Artist Proofs
for each of his works. If you go to the Category statement on the left side of the page

The main street in La Jolla,CA, Girard Avenue, was that Saturday lined with Shelby autos in front of the presenting art gallery that hosted the event to feature the "Bitten By Snake" art work done by well known detail artist Danny Day.
As an introduction for the event the gallery had prepared this 5.5" X 8.5" color postcard mailer and had mailed it out to prospective Shelby enthusiasts.

Any Shelby enthusiast and collector would definitely want this very rare piece!
Remember that it has been signed by both Carroll Shelby and by Danny Day!
The artform of pencil drawings adds a dimension to artwork that sometimes cannot be captured in color work. It tends to yield a realistic dimension that causes one to pause and to consider the subjects in a somewhat more natural light.
Danny Day has captured a sense with these drawings that reveals the essence of the situation depicted, and they nearly bring to life the motion of the race vehicle.
They are a tremendous addition to one's art collection.
This rare and very unusual piece of automotive artwork is a very limited edition original pencil sketch that represents Phill Hill's racing period in the shark nose series Ferrari's.
It was Danny day's basis for the vehicles as he depicted in the additional oil paintings we have of Phil Hill.
There are very few of the Danny Day pencil sketches in existence. Thus, this is a very rare offering.
In 1961 Phill Hill's championships were achieved in the Tipo 156 Ferrari which Hill drove to victory at Monza, Italy to clinch the 1961 Driver's title.

The frame measures 20" wide X 16" high.

It is definitely a piece of history that will only increase in value over time.
