1932 Grand Prix National de l'Entre Sambre et Meuse, Mettet 5 June poster, a rare original example featuring an artist's impression of a racing motorcyclist at speed, printed in red and gold, original fold marks, laid on linen, truncated triangular shape, 90.5 by 66cm., 35? by 26in. Racing on public roads at Mettet, in Belgium's Province de Namur, began in 1927, but in 1932 the circuit was extended to 8.5km in a figure-of-eight shape that would remain in use until 1991. This poster advertises the fifth running of the motorcycle Grand Prix event that was held there annually.
