Smokin’ Joe Petrali is considered the Greatest Motorcycle Racer of all time. Here is another candid unpublished pre-race picture. Joe is on the #1 bike at the starting line. From “The Molenaar Family Album” His racing career spanned 20 years 1918-1938 and won 49 AMA Championship Races.

This print is professionally printed edge-to-edge on high-quality glossy/luster photo paper. All prints are on finger-print resistant 10 mil (0.25 mm) thick paper, and YES, even the largest prints are on photo paper, unlike everyday posters.

This photograph, and many others like it, is a reproduction from the estate of Harry Molenaar. A lot of time and effort was put  into restoring the decades of wear, tear, and fading of the originals. We hope you’ll love the print as much as we loved restoring it.

Note: Thanks for checking out this print. The original is from a relatively small photo. This will cause larger prints to appear slightly blurry. Unfortunately, there’s nothing we can do to correct for this. Therefore we’ve limited the print size on eBay to 13″x19″, though we recommend sticking with a smaller print. Please zoom in to the close-up sample pic to see the full definition of the print. Thank you for understanding.
