A brand new souvenir set dedicated to the history of automotive industry is from now on available at our Collector Showrooms. The set includes the postage stamps released in 2013 in a joint issue of the Russian Federation and the Principality of Monaco and a souvenir se-tenant on a metal plate. 

 The item depicts the ZIL-111В which brought Yury Gagarin, the first cosmonaut, to the Kremlin on 14 April 1961, and the Sunbeam Alpine which was driven by Grace Kelly in “To Catch a Thief” (1955).

ZIL-111В was a Soviet high-class passenger car available as a long wheelbase sedan, limousine and phaeton. It was assembled in small batches at the Likhachov Plant in Moscow from 1959 to 1967 год. The automobile was used in specific and exceptional situations such as parades, ceremonial escorts and on other upscale occasions. The convertible “inspected” Soviet military and October Revolution parades in the first half of the 1960s.

Sunbeam Motor Car Company started manufacturing sports vehicles in 1953 by introducing the two-seated Sunbeam Alpine. The model was a successor of the Sunbeam Talbot 90. The car had a four-cylinder 80 hp engine and was capable of 120 mph (190 km/h).

The souvenir set will become an exquisite gift for collectors in Russia and all over the world.
