    Description

    This is a very special 1 of 1 envelope. It is a Commemorative. The return address is the same as the one that Shelby American had when they first built the Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe, with which they conquered and won the F.I.A. Manufacturers Title in 1965.This envelope is postmarked by the Unite States Postal Service with a special Commemorative Cobra cancellation exactly 30 years to the day that it achieved that historical feat. It is also cancelled with the zip code of the Venice CA. location from 1965. There were only 250 of these envelopes made for the Carroll Shelby Childrens Foundation. Most all of them were sold through the CSCF with Carroll Shelby's signature only on the front of the envelope. What makes this envelope a 1 of 1 is that it was offered at a SAAC silent auction at which time all of the signatures were added by these original Shelby AmericanTeam members. Herlita Natividad the Executive Director of the CSCF hand wrote all of the team members that signed on the backside of one of the bid sheets. The signatures are from Carroll Shelby-Lew Spencer-John Whitmore-Jack Sears-John Morton-Alan Mann and Pete Brock. Also included is a color 81/2 x 11 color photo of the 1965 F.I.A. Cup and the paper work from the CSCF. These two items would look great framed together. Both of these items are coming out of my private 50 year collection. The two CS business cars shown in the pics are not included in the auction. I will send a copy of them if so desired. Please note that free shipping is for lower 48 only. Out of country will be actual. Items will be shipped in a heavy duty box.Thanks for looking.
