The topic of German motorcycles is a big one in more ways than one. Before the Second World War, there was a very significant motorcycle production in Germany, and especially in the twenties the number of brands was particularly high, many of which only lasted for a short period of time. After the war, the number of brands had dwindled. Of these, only some were imported to Denmark, and these are the ones this book is about. But when the topic is German motorcycles after the war, there is a special relationship, as Germany was divided into BRD and DDR, i.e. West and East Germany, so of course the motorcycles from DDR are included. Not quite the same applies to the Austrian Puch motorcycles, but since Austria is a German-speaking country, it was only natural to include the Puch motorcycles in this book. Let it be said right away: There are tons of books written about German motorcycles, and most of them are naturally written in German. The aim of this book is to give a new and different view of German motorcycles. The expression, 'a picture is worth a thousand words', is exactly what the pictures in this book are meant to do.
It is with historical images as with any other history - they are pieces of a mosaic. This book is not a complete historical and chronological overview of the German motorcycle factories and the many motorcycles produced during the almost ten years of rapid development from 1950 to the end of the decade. Yet each of the images tells its own story, and it's a story that hasn't been edited or altered. What the camera lens saw was also what ended up becoming the images reproduced in this book. Because some of the images are the factories' own press photos, there was a clear goal, and that was to sell motorcycles and get the message across that the factory wanted. Therefore, there is also a strong emphasis on Danish images. These private images are particularly interesting because they had a completely different purpose. They were not meant to sell, but to tell a story about the subject without any hidden intentions. In addition, the viewer also gets a much greater insight into what Denmark looked like at the time with houses, roads, landscape, telephone poles, clothing and much more. The advice from here is: Sit in the best chair in the house and enjoy the images from a time that will never come again.
