Mercedes-Benz — 8 museum-grade prints across the catalogue. The Mercedes-Benz 300 SL W198 Gullwing was produced from 1954 to 1957 with 1,400 coupes built. Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft engineer Rudolf Uhlenhaut adapted the 1952 racing car's space-frame into the road car, necessitating the signature upward-opening doors. MERCEDES-BENZ W196 (Europe, 1954) — independent Formula 1 engineering tribute art; not affiliated with FIA, Formula One, or Mercedes-Benz. Fan-art disclaimer applies. The Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR occupies a singular place in motorsport history — a machine of extraordinary achievement shadowed by the 1955 Le Mans disaster that killed Pierre Levegh and dozens of spectators. Stirling Moss and Denis Jenkinson's Mille Miglia victory in number 722 remains the benchmark road-race performance, while the SLR's withdrawal from racing after Le Mans marked the end of Mercedes' immediate post-war competition programme.
