660mm×390mm×35mm Ferrari is just a small car manufacturer born in Maranello. However, it is the Enzo and many other staff members
who have worked with Ferrari who have earned more admiration than any other automaker and who have become admirers.
It's nothing but because I've spent a particularly dense time.
If you unravel the accumulated history of each and every one of them,
there will always be an exceptionally attractive story that attracts people.
This time, we would like to introduce you to the story of a man who created the charm of Ferrari.
His name is Luigi Chinetti. Even if you're not a Ferrari fan, he's a name you've heard at least once. He is also an integral part of the Ferrari legend.
Born in Milan in 1901, at the age of 16, he got a job at the fledgling Alfa Romeo.
He eventually showed his talent as a racing driver. In 1932 and 1934 he drove an Alfa 8C to overall victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
In the midst of the escalating war, he went to North America after the war and demonstrated his skills as a dealer in North America for Ferrari,
which was established by Enzo, who was a friend from his Italian days.
In 1949, he entered the 24 Hours of Le Mans in a 166MM, and ran over 22 hours alone,
winning the overall victory in his first Le Mans appearance for Ferrari.
Chinetti's Ferrari North American dealership was a huge success, and with it came a great deal of influence over Ferrari.
Among the many famous Ferrari cars, there are by no means a small number of those that were born with Chinetti's advice.
For example, the “California Spider” is one of them. He also gave the 365GT/4 the nickname “DAYTONA”.
This time, he was born at a party held in Modena to celebrate his 90th birthday.
A grand party was held at RISTRANTE LAURO to celebrate his birthday. This commemorative plaque was created to commemorate that sunny moment.
A special menu prepared on the day, N.A.R.T., of course, Kinetti's emblem, and his 90th anniversary memorial medal are bound.
The N.A.R.T. emblem displayed here is a very early original. The cloisonné part on the surface is chipped,
but the depth is wrapped in a solid atmosphere that only things that have accumulated history with Ferrari can have.
More attention is this menu. Starting with the owner of Ristorante Lauro, which was the venue, of course,
the autographs by Chinetti are firmly written. In fact, this forehead has a structure sandwiched between glass on both sides, and the fun is also firmly hidden on the back side. On the back of the menu, the figure of 166 running at Le Mans is drawn, and there is another autograph of Kinetti here. By the way, did you notice? There are changes in the signatures on the front and back. The one you see on the front is what he used during his time in America, and the back is what he used during his time in Italy.
In addition, please pay attention to the highlight of this menu, the small number printed on the fold part.
The part number that always appears in official Ferrari-related publications is also listed here. In other words,
this menu was created by Ferrari itself. It brings you closer to Luigi Chinetti, an essential figure in Ferrari history.
In other words, it is nothing less than approaching the history of Ferrari. A must-have for Ferrari fans.
