Tatra 87 - 15 January 2019

26 Jan 2019 1 1 80
Tatra 87 (1937) In the Design section of the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich are a small number of cars displayed primarily as examples of design rather than automobile history/technology. I have seen Tatras before - indeed there was one on my earlier visit to the Deutsches Museum Verkehrszentrum - and they are, frankly, jaw-dropping. The extraordinarily avant-garde design is even more evident in a front view dominated by a startling third headlight on the centreline. The design is attributed to Hans Ledwinka (1878-1967). 200_3_P1090452CE
