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.

1945 Balboa Stadium Midget Racing Program Poster Print. Measures 17 inches wide x 22 inches tall. A great poster print that would look great in the den, office, garage or workshop. This is one of three poster prints from the Balboa Stadium. Wehave this one from 1945 , one from 1951 and another from 1960. I used to love down the street from Balboa Park down in San Diego. It is hard to imagine that not too long ago there used to be a race track down there. This print looks great all framed up, a simple clean design. Soon Father’s Day will be here and then gone. Not sure if you ordered today you would receive it in time enough for this weekend. Maybe if you ordered today or tomorrow and choose to use Priority Mail it will cut it close.

San Diego Big 3 Parts Exchange. !!! What an awesome event ! We all had a lot of fun, sold a bunch of stuff and also of course …bought a lot of stuff. There were plenty of great deals on Model A and Model T Ford parts. The only bad part of the weekend was that on Sunday was the Long Beach swap meet. So a lot of vendors were packed up and heading up to that swap meet on Saturday night. The line was HUGE to leave the event. The gates for entry and exiting window was only before and after the swap meet hours. At 5 pm there were tons of folks all packed up and heading north.

Posters sales were great over the event. Makes me more excited about this coming season and all the car shows to hit this year. We have some personal things to tend to up north during April in Half Moon Bay and San Francisco . So we are VERY excited about the events up in Northern California .

Thru the month of March and April we will continue the “free shipping” for 2 or more posters on the Amazon WebStore.
