Description

Ferrari responds to motorsport legend Tazio Nuvolari about "your desire to participate in the Livorno circuit with one of my cars"

TLS in Italian, signed “Ferrari,” one page, 6.75 x 9.25, Ferrari letterhead, August 18, 1947. Letter to famed Italian racing driver Tazio Nuvolari, in part (translated): "On returning from the mountain, where I went to spend August with my child, this morning I found your letter of the 14th with which you inform me that you received my message of the 9th and of your desire to participate in the Livorno circuit with one of my cars. In all likelihood it will be ready by then, we'll keep you informed for the testing day. My secretary informs me of having sent you a check for £47,500 on the 13th, the award for ranking at circuit in Parma that I hope you have already received." In fine condition. Nuvolari drove a Ferrari 125 Spyder at the Livorno race on August 28, 1947, but did not finish.
