The Autobahn ride sign and its cars, 1937

Along the far side of the track stands a long booth with the word AUTOBAHN in large letters across its front, lamps on posts before it and a large block of buildings behind; small cars run round the plank track, and one swings out of the bend toward the camera as the attendant in knickerbockers steps off the padded barrier. The motorway had become the regime's favourite image of progress, reproduced on stamps, posters and fairground signs.
