  • In 1952 Mercedes-Benz staged a comeback to motor sports racing with the newly-developed Type 300SL (W194). Featuring an unusual entry through a gull-wing door that opens from the lower edge of the side window and swivels upward around the centerpiece of the roof top this streamlined sports car immediately cast a spell on the racing enthusiasts.
  • After a successful debut at the Mille Miglia the 300SL moved on to the renewed competition of sports car racing at the Grand Prix of Bern on May 18th 1952.
  • The three officially registered 300SL’s were decked out in uncommonly colorful finishes including dark red (Rudolf Caracciola #16) green (Karl Kling #18) and blue (Hermann Lang #20) not to mention the silver-colored finish of the replacement car with Fritz Rieß (#22) at its wheel. The team was ready to engage the rivals from Ferrari Lancia Aston Martin and Jaguar. At the end of the race Mercedes-Benz celebrated a spectacular triple-victory with the 1st 2nd and 3rd places clinched by Karl Kling Hermann Lang and Fritz Rieß respectively. The joy of victory however was tempered because a tragic accident had happened to Rudolf Caracciola when he veered off the track on a stalled front brake and crashed into a tree in round 13. He was taken to hospital with a broken femur and other injuries
  • Dimensions approximately L-10.5 W-4 H-3.5 inches.
