Can you ID this poster?

I just grabbed this beautiful Porsche poster at a thrift shop. It's signed by Rick Mc Bride of a 1983 930, violin neck and female figure. I tried to search Mc Bride on Google with no luck. Who knows anything about it or photographer Rick Mc Bride (possibly with Car and Driver at some time)? Thanks...

Sure that's not Ricks figure?

If that's Rick's figure Austin, I wanna meet em. LOL This is a huge poster and one I've not seen before. I'd love to know more about the piece and/or photographer because it's personally autographed to "Bob" whoever that might be...
Think Mid9 will ever resurface?

I saw that article but no way to trace the photographer so far... I have a friend who does freelance photo work for C&D as well as a few others and just sent him the same question. Rick has to be out there somewhere unless he ran off with the car and model!
Thanks

No problem. Here's a little more I found on a Richard McBride. Sounds like it might be the same guy:

I have a DP 935 poster that is a similar format. It has a similar female shape first, then a bottle of champagne in place of the violin and last the DP935. I don't really know anymore about it. I would think it was done at the same time but the same person/company.

Nice poster.

Don't think that would be him, Josh. Wrong kind of background history. But thanks.
