🏁 Porsche Cup ’87 – 1987 – Original Poster by Strenger Grafik Design – Germany
Factory roster of Group C privateer teams and Porsche Cup standings
| Offset lithograph | 102 × 76 cm | Germany
🎬 Introduction
A crisp slab of late‑’80s motorsport graphics, this factory poster declares PORSCHE CUP ’87 in high‑impact red over a disciplined editorial grid. Three dynamic photographs of the 962C punctuate the layout: a blue‑white SAT/Addivite car loaded up mid‑corner; a monochrome Kenwood‑liveried machine skimming a curb alongside a Yokohama‑badged entry; and the unmistakable turquoise Leyton House 962C. The right‑hand column reads like a race‑day program, listing privateer teams and drivers with the efficient legibility characteristic of corporate Stuttgart. Issued by Porsche AG at the close of the 1987 season, it captures Group C at full tilt and the privateer ecosystem that kept 962Cs at the sharp end from Le Mans to the World Sports‑Prototype Championship.
✨ Why It Matters
Factory Porsche posters sit at the intersection of racing ephemera and corporate design—sought for their authorship, season specificity, and sponsor‑livery colorways. This sheet celebrates the privateer backbone of Group C: Weidler and Kremer, Wolleck and Jöst, Stuck in Rothmans colors, Brun’s Jägermeister orange, and the photogenic Leyton House teal. Designed by Strenger Grafik Design with photography by Upietz/Bock and printed in 12/87, it reflects the marque’s rigorous internal visual language. Produced in a near‑B1 format for dealer and office display rather than retail sale, surviving clean examples are scarcer and enjoy crossover appeal among Porsche, endurance racing, and sponsor‑livery collectors.
