Description
Sachs Motor sponsored an international / inter continental motorcycle expedition through Europe - Asia - United States of America. Here is a card promoting the event. It is the size of a postcard. Featured are three of the cyclists: Walter Franz, Albert Bull and Hermann Klee. Each is attired in a suit and tie!This ephemeral paper item was published in Europe perhaps France. The printed wording on the very bottom states: "Papier de la papeterie hellenique" and "Eliche de photozingographie K Kazazi Atnenes rue euripide". It is entitled "Europa - Asien - America". Advertisers / other sponsors include Shell Oil and Continental Tires. This is an original promotional item and not a recent reproduction.
On the reverse is illegible handwriting which I cannot decipher. It appears to be an residential address and maybe a phone number.
As stated earlier, this item is the size of a post card. At one point in time it was folded in half. Edges are worn. No rips or tears. Some minor discoloration and browning, but the image of the three cyclists is strong. Circa late 1940s or 1950s based on the clothing of the motorcyclists, though I could be wrong. A very cool collectible.
There is no reserve price. The item will be sent via USPS first class mail at no cost to you if your reside in the United States and its territories. Interested international buyers should contact me in advance for a shipping cost estimate.
Receipt of payment is expected within five days unless other arrangements have agreed to.
Good luck and thank you for considering this item!
