Franco Bordoni, (34) Osca MT4 1350. Monaco Grand Prix 1952, transformed into a race for sports cars. This was a two day event, the Sunday for the up to 2 litres (Prix de Monte Carlo), the Monday for the bigger engines, (Monaco Grand Prix).

An open-top race car with the number 54 corners on the street circuit before the grand Beaux-Arts façade of the Monte Carlo Casino. The scene is from the 1952 Monaco Grand Prix, which that year was run as a race for sports cars. Among the drivers competing was Franco Bordoni in his Osca MT4 1350. Spectators line the track, watching from behind a simple wooden barrier.
