Teammates led by Denny Hulme. Just like Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, who followed the yellow brick road to find her way home with Toto by her side, we can't help but be captivated by the timeless charm of Judy Garland donning her iconic checkered dress. At another exhilarating Le Mans 24 Hours Race, Willy Mairesse and Jean Beurlys showcased their skill behind the wheel of a Ferrari 330 P4, securing an impressive third-place finish amidst fierce competition. Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec's photographic double portrait reveals his artistic genius while also capturing him posing as both model and painter. His checkered past becomes part of his enigmatic allure. The historic 1951 British Grand Prix witnessed Jose Froilan Gonzalez claim victory for Ferrari in their first-ever GP win. The checkered flag marked not only a triumph for Gonzalez but also a significant milestone for this legendary racing team. From Methoni in Greece to galleries worldwide, blue vases adorned with oranges bring a touch of elegance to any space. Their delicate patterns reminiscent of a subtle checkered design add sophistication to every corner they grace.
