This edition is particularly significant because each canvas is personally hand-signed by three of the most celebrated figures in American motorsports history: Carroll Shelby, Dan Gurney, and Phil Hill.

Produced on archival-quality canvas and measuring an impressive 36″ × 24″, this artwork captures the power, beauty, and remarkable racing heritage of these iconic automobiles.

Offered directly by Hallmark Press, Inc., the original publisher, this limited edition combines exceptional automotive fine Art, historic racing memorabilia, and three authentic signatures from legendary drivers who helped shape motorsports history.

The Artwork – Two American Racing Legends

Few automobiles have achieved the legendary status of the Shelby Cobra and Shelby Daytona Coupe.

The Shelby Cobra was born from Carroll Shelby’s extraordinary vision of combining a lightweight British sports car with the power of an American Ford V8 engine.

The result was one of the most exciting performance automobiles ever created—a machine capable of challenging Europe’s finest sports cars.

The Shelby Daytona Coupe, developed as an aerodynamic evolution of the Cobra racing program, became an equally important chapter in Shelby American’s remarkable history.

Designed to challenge Ferrari on the world’s great endurance racing circuits, the Daytona Coupe helped Shelby American capture the 1965 FIA International Championship for GT Manufacturers.

Danny Day brings these two extraordinary automobiles together in a dramatic composition that celebrates their unmistakable styling, engineering achievements, and lasting influence on American automotive history.

The result is a beautiful tribute to two of America’s greatest racing machines and the legendary personalities who helped make motorsports history.

Personally Autographed by Three Racing Legends

What sets this limited edition apart is three authentic, hand-applied signatures from legendary figures in international motorsports.

Carroll Shelby (1923–2012)

A championship-winning racing driver, automotive visionary, and founder of Shelby American, Carroll Shelby created some of the most celebrated performance automobiles in history.

After winning the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans, Shelby went on to develop the legendary Shelby Cobra, Daytona Coupe, and Shelby Mustangs.

His involvement in Ford’s historic campaign against Ferrari helped establish the Ford GT40 as one of the greatest endurance racing automobiles ever built.

Dan Gurney (1931–2018)

One of America’s most versatile and accomplished racing drivers, Dan Gurney achieved victories in Formula One, IndyCar, NASCAR, and international sports car racing.

In 1967, Gurney and A.J. Foyt made history by winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the Ford GT40 Mk IV.

Phil Hill (1927–2008)

Phil Hill became the first American-born Formula One World Drivers’ Champion in 1961, achieving that historic distinction while driving for Ferrari.

His remarkable career also included three overall victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, establishing him as one of America’s greatest international racing drivers.

All three legends have since passed away, making their personal signatures together on a single artwork particularly meaningful to collectors of historic motorsports memorabilia.
