Celebrity Autographs And Celebrity Addresses

To celebrate its 10th Anniversary as the exclusive tire supplier to the IndyRacing League, Firestone and IndyCar Series Magazine will auction a special poster featuring the autograph of every driver that has won an IRL race on Firestone Tires. Proceeds to benefit the Sam Schmidt Foundation and the CARA Charity.

(PRWEB) August 14, 2005 -- Firestone Racing and IndyCar Series Magazine are proud to offer IndyCar Series fans the chance to own a unique print of Firestone’s 10 Year anniversary commemorative poster – signed by all the winning drivers.

A collector’s dream, this poster is one of 25 from a limited edition run signed and numbered by artist Paul Laguette.

But making this one special is that, over the next two months, it is being transported across the globe to gather all the autographs of the 30 drivers who have won IndyCar Series races using Firestone Firehawk tires – a list which includes no less than six different drivers winning seven Indianapolis 500’s and seven IndyCar Series champions.

The centerpiece of any memorabilia collection, the 28” x 38” poster will then be put up for auction on eBay in October this year, with all proceeds from the highest bid split between the Sam Schmidt Paralysis Foundation and CARA Charities. The winning bid will then be announced after the IndyCar Series season-end celebration on October 17th.

And don’t forget, you can find a special gatefold version of the Firestone anniversary poster in the September issue of IndyCar Series Magazine, and in the October issue of RACER Magazine.
