A pair of black & white motorsport prints

Not posted for quite a while because it just depresses me that I no longer have a Lotus... so I try to avoid looking !!
But, when my wife said these had to find a new home I thought they may be of interest to someone on here (before I go and stick them on gumtree).

I bought them as a pair years ago (15+ yrs probably) and they adorned the walls of my home office along with a few framed photos of track days etc. Slowly but surely my home office has been morphing in to a spare bedroom. Now that the transformation is complete, with no sign it will be reversed in the near future, there's no place for them.

The print size of each is 60cm x 44cm. Overall frame dimensions are 84cm x 67cm.

The first one has a sticker on the rear stating "Scuderia Ferrari, British Grand Prix 1956".

The second one has a sticker on the rear stating "Goodwood Cup 1952, V16 BRM's of Froilan Gonzalez and Reg Parnell"

[EDIT: I've just noticed my photos make the prints look very grainy. I can assure you the problem is with my photos, not the prints.. they are not grainy.]

The frames are an antique silver colour, and they are double mounted which adds a bit of depth to them. Trying to price these is tricky. I can't remember what I paid all those years ago, but I know they weren't cheap. I've managed to find a company on the web selling the same prints, framed (albeit only single mounted) but they are asking £400 for the pair delivered !! :scratch

and here

I think a fair asking price for my pair would be £100. Located in Livingston.
PM me if interested... would prefer not to have the hassle of timewasters on Gumtree.

Cheers, Andy.
