Marken- Weltmeister 1983 - PorscheEntry/Object ID
2025.7.168Scope and Content
This poster commemorates Porsche’s 1983 World Endurance Championship triumph in Group C, using a tableau of driver helmets arranged on the Rothmans‑liveried prototype to symbolize the collective effort behind the marque’s dominance. The German headline—“Endurance‑Weltmeisterschaft – Gruppe C / Marken‑Weltmeister 1983 / Porsche”—translates to “Endurance World Championship – Group C / Makes’ World Champion 1983 / Porsche,” framing the achievement as both technical and national pride. The helmets of Derek Bell, Jacky Ickx, and their teammates serve as stand‑ins for the drivers themselves, while the sponsor row at the bottom—Rothmans, Bilstein, Bosch, Boss, Dunlop, KKK, Schmithelm, Shell—anchors the poster in the industrial ecosystem that powered Porsche’s era‑defining success.Collection
