An eBay auction set a record for a Vanderbilt Cup Race ribbon. A press ribbon for the 1906 Vanderbilt Cup Race was sold for $3,051.
The six Vanderbilt Cup Races held on Long Island from 1904 to 1910 were the greatest sporting events of their day, and the first international automobile road races held in the United States. The races had a far-reaching impact on the development of American automobiles and parkways. This site provides comprehensive information on the races, the Long Island Motor Parkway and current Long Island automotive events, car shows and news.
