In excellent condition but obviously used and a small corner or the top of the rear cover missing (see photographs). Blank lap sheet with some scribbling in the margins.

Fantastic artwork by world renowned motorsport artist Geo Ham on both the front and rear cover.

Unlike the previous years, the artist has decided to show a slightly more symbolic face of the event.

The scene looks like the exit of the Mulsanne hairpin while the water tower, which was built by the Germans during World War 2, can be seen in the background on the left.
