It's a picture I have found on this forum (in french) but you can find a lot of old pictures: http://forums.motorlegend.com/vb/arc...9042-p-4.html;)

Great photo. What I really noticed was the top of the photo and the old White House corner. You really get an idea of how fast cars must have gone through it, the only blip on an otherwise pretty much straight run from Arnage to Dunlop. Not only would they go in to it fast, but they would have been really pushing to keep their speed up for the long straight after it. No wonder it was so notorious and the scene of so many crashes.
