Visitors inspect Buna tyres at the Düsseldorf exhibition, 1937

A tall stack of tyres, the name Continental on the sidewall of the nearest, stands at the front of a stand beneath a wall panel headed BUNA; a crowd of men in suits and hats presses round, bends over the tyres, runs fingers along the treads and talks. Buna, the synthetic rubber of I.G. Farben, was a pet project of the Four-Year Plan: Hermann Göring wanted Germany freed from imported natural rubber before the next war.
