Bitten by the Snake by Danny Day Autographed by Carroll Shelby, Hill, and Gurney
Bitten by the Snake — Original Oil Painting | Carroll Shelby, Dan Gurney, Phil Hill by Artist Danny Day
A rare opportunity to own an important piece of American motorsport history — an original oil painting, offered directly by the artist's publisher.
Bitten by the Snake is an original oil on canvas by celebrated artist Danny Day, depicting two of the most iconic machines in racing history: the Shelby Cobra and the Daytona Coupe. The painting is hand-signed by Carroll Shelby, Dan Gurney, and Phil Hill — three names that defined an era.
The image area measures 30" × 40", presented in a substantial 42" × 52" frame. It is a commanding presence in any setting, with the depth, texture, and luminosity that only an original oil painting can deliver.
Condition The painting itself is in excellent condition. Over the years it has been exhibited at numerous shows and events, and as a result the frame carries the minor imperfections of a well-traveled piece. The price reflects the value of the painting alone — the frame is incidental.
