Moto Art – Bonhams Barber Museum Auction

What happened with car, motorcycle, and race advertising?  I honesty can’t picture myself framing a current Mercedes, Triumph motorcycle, Castrol oil, or Daytona 200 ad and hanging it center stage in my living room.  A digital stroll through Bonhams Barber Museum auction catalog will have you scratching your head in disbelief that advertisements were at one time so beautiful.  Check out a few of our favorites below….and yah, you can buy them this weekend at the auction.  Just click the caption to go to the Bonhams auction page.
