1953 Paradise Mesa Drag Strip Poster Print

57 years ago …!! it was 1953 at the Paradise Mesa Drag Strip. This poster print measures 17 inches wide x 22 inches tall. An awesome reproduction poster print.

At Paradise Mesa, a strip southwest of San Diego California which opened in 1951 on a a site once notorious for “chaotic illegal sprint bashes,” competition was about equally divided between two and four wheeled vehicles. At the end of a day’s racing it was often a cycle that emerged on top. Still, there were four wheeled machines competing which looked a little like something purposefully designed, as opposed to having merely been “stipped to the bare essentials.”  These machines were classified as “modifieds,”, a traditional dry lakes designation for a one-seater built on a narrowed frame.
It was at Paradise Mesa that many of the first drag racers emerged who became houshold names to hot rodders nationwide.

With a good handful of posters from the 60′s, here is a cool one from San Diego, California. Three posters I carry are from Balboa Stadium. This one measures 17 inches wide x 22 inches tall. The event date was July 9, 1960. The other two prints are just as cool , one from 1945, and the other from 1951. So with that, we have a poster from each era, 40′s, 50′s,  and 60′s. I will have to dig some info on the track and post it when I post the other two posters.
