Hi,

bit of a wierd one. I have some postcards that were given to me by Ferrari in 2005/2006. They are a set of 12, boxed, Maserati photographs that are numbered. I have done a search on the internet for details on these, but I could only come up with this:

http://www.maserati-alfieri.co.uk/alfieri06iiiiii.... (about half way down)

If anybody knows more about them, what they were actually for and how they were distributed, that would be great.

The website listed above gives this description;

"MASERATI – THERE ARE SO MANY STARS


Back in July 2005, the glamorous world of Maserati was celebrated at an exclusive photographic exhibition, ‘Egli Ci Ha Tante Stelle’ – ‘There are so Many Stars’ – in London.

The exhibition, staged at the Michael Hoppen Gallery in Chelsea, illustrated the colourful history of this prestigious, sporting marque through a series of superb photographs, whose subjects ranged from the Grand Prix victories won by Juan Manuel Fangio, to astronaut Walter Schirra taking delivery of his Maserati Bora supercar in 1971. Over 30 evocative images were on display, all of them selected by exhibition curator and design guru Stephen Bayley.

Present at the opening of this exhibition were racing driver Stirling Moss – who starred in several of the images – supermodel Jodie Kidd, who will be racing in the 2006 Maserati Trofeo GranSport Championship, 5th Gear TV presenter Vicki Butler- Henderson and the Italian ambassador Giancarlo Aragona, who were all entertained by host and curator Stephen Bayley.

To commemorate this exhibition, Maserati produced this signed boxed set of 12 postcards recalling the celebrated memories of Maserati."
