The worn cover of the 1957 Arrow Books paperback edition of "The Racer" by Hans Ruesch, originally published in 1953. The dramatic illustration depicts a silver-grey open-cockpit racing car, number 16, on a winding country road. In the background, another vehicle has crashed and is engulfed in flames, billowing black smoke. A yellow banner at the top reads, "To stay at the top at all costs was his racing creed." The price is marked as two shillings net.
