Rennfahrer

Rennfahrer is a German-language motorsport publication released in 1961 by Motor-Presse-Verlag in Stuttgart. The book features a collection of high-quality black and white portraits of prominent racing drivers from the 1950s and 1960s, captured by photographer Dr. Benno Müller. The work is notable for its candid, expressive style, documenting the personalities of the era's racing scene rather than just the technical aspects of the vehicles. For instance, Müller's portraits of figures like Stirling Moss are recognized for their focus on the human element, capturing quiet moments of concentration and personality. The publication includes accompanying text by Heinz-Ulrich (H. U.) Wieselmann. It is presented in a large format, originally appearing in a hardcover binding with a protective dust jacket.
