An original 2012 Monza tabard (Media Vest or Official vest) is considered a rare, high-value collector's item, particularly in "new, never worn" condition.
These vests were used by media or staff at the 2012 Italian Grand Prix and are rarely found in pristine condition. These vests/tabards were used by media or team personnel during the race weekend and are not available for public sale, making them rare memorabilia.
Significance: The 2012 race was highly notable in F1 history as it was part of Michael Schumacher's final season and featured a podium with Lewis Hamilton, Sergio Pérez, and Fernando Alonso.
Value: Because they are authentic,, used/unused trackside items from a specific, famous race weekend, they are sought after by Formula 1 memorabilia collectors.
Condition: A new, unused tabard commands a significantly higher price than used, faded, or dirty examples, which are often sold for "man cave" decoration.
Type: Media, Pit Wall, and Photographer, vests are usually more sought after than volunteer or general access vests. New, never worn" or unused items are extremely scarce, as most were issued and used at the pit wall or in the media center.
Provenance: An original vest, not a replica, holds value for collectors of F1 memorabilia.
Would look stunning framed hanging in a mans cave, pub, or sports shop. Also for the fanatical sports fan memorabilia collector. No restock= once its sold its gone for good.
PLEASE NOTE!!!! The signed cap, is NOT part of the tabbard sale or listing, it will be listed later under signed items. (Coming soon).
Buy from a TRUSTED seller with confidence, any Questions ask!!
