A convertible on the Autobahn, 1937

Ahead of the camera car a convertible with its hood folded and luggage strapped over the rear drives down the concrete lane, then pulls out and away; the motorway sweeps in a long curve across flat country dotted with farm buildings, woods and electricity pylons, with a white median strip and hardly another vehicle in sight. Private motoring was still for the few: in 1937 Germany had far fewer cars per head than Britain or France.
