Cross-Country Lorries : German Manufacturers (Camera On)

During Weimar Germany's first programme for motorising the Reichswehr from 1926, development of three-axled cross-country lorries with a payload of 3 tons was demanded (in addition to vehicles of other specification).
Three companies were involved in the development of these lorries: Bussing, Henschel and Krupp. The first Henschel model - the Henschel type 33 B 1 - was delivered in 1928.

This profusely illustrated photo-album includes over 150 previously unseen pictures of these vehicles in action, many from private sources in Germany.

The 'Einheits-Diesel' - WW2 German Trucks (Camera On)

This photo-album in the "Camera On" series contains over 100 photographs of the Leichter Geländegängiger Lastkraftwagen "Einheitsdiesel" (Standard Diesel Lorry).
The development of the standard lorry for the German military started in 1934.

It was planned to develop vehicles with 2, 3 and 4 axles with payloads of 1.5, 2.5 and 4 tons, but in the end only the model with three axles and 2.5 tons payload entered serial production.
Series production started in 1937 and ended in 1940 with more than 14,300 vehicles being built by nine different main vehicle producers. The "Einheits-Diesel" lorries were made identical by all nine manufacturers: Bussing-NAG, Daimler-Benz, FAUN, VOMAG, Henschel, Krupp, Magirus, MAN and Borgward.

"Camera On" is a series of books on the equipment and operations of the German Wehrmacht in WW2. The focus is on the often ignored or overlooked soft-skinned, non-armoured, vehicles used by the German army. These profusely illustrated photo-albums include a large number of previously unseen pictures, many from private sources in Germany.

Wartime Woodburners : Alternative Fuel Vehicles in World War II

In this age of concern with continuing availability of oil, scientists are working on a number of approaches to alternate fuel sources. These concerns may provoke interest in how some people in gas-starved Europe dealt with such problems throughout the war years, 1939-1945.

One of the most successful innovations, were the so-called "gas producer" vehicles that utilized the by-products of solid fuel combustion, employing such solids as coal, charcoal, turf, and wood to produce fuel gas for a standard internal combustion engine.

This book provides an overview of such vehicles, including those used by the Wehrmacht. Schematics of operating systems and the regulations concerning their use are also included, along with a translated German illustrated operators manual.

Klassische Deutsche Nutzfahrzeuge - Enzyklopädie erloschener Marken

Este libro ilustrado muestra la evolución de los vehículos comerciales alemanes en los inicios de la motorización. Con el motor de combustión, las antiguas carrozas se transformaron en camiones, autobuses, tractores y máquinas agrícolas modernas. A comienzos del siglo XX surgieron numerosos fabricantes, muchos de ellos de corta existencia, pero que produjeron modelos hoy considerados clásicos.

El autor Halwart Schrader presenta marcas como Borgward, Hanomag y Eicher y documenta toda su gama de vehículos. El libro abarca modelos comerciales, administrativos y agrícolas, acompañados de fotografías históricas e información esencial. Es una visión clara de una etapa determinante de la historia automovilística alemana.

Deutsche Militärlastwagen - Bis 1945

The Wehrmacht entered the Second World War with a huge number of horses, wagons, tanks and trucks. However, as there were never enough to replace the lost vehicles or even to increase the level of motorization, trucks were considered the army's weak point. And because suitable material was in short supply, all kinds of civilian vehicles were used, regardless of their suitability.

This resulted in a hodgepodge of vehicles and brands, most of which were also adopted by the Wehrmacht.
The army is said to have used over 1000 vehicle types - Werner Oswald portrays the most important of these in this book.

Eilschlepper und Strassenzugmaschinen - 1903-1956 (Typenkompass)

One advantage of road tractors is that they do not have to stand still for long periods of time because they do not have to wait for their load to be unloaded. Their counterpart in agriculture was so-called express tractors, which could drive along the roads at a higher speed than normal tractors to transport their load.

In this Typenkompass, Wolfgang Gebhardt presents the most important express tractors and road tractors in Germany since 1903: the historical arc is spanned from the first road tractor to the first Lanz traffic (express) bulldogs in 1923 to the year 1956, when the Unimog dominated the remaining market.

Tanklaster des Wirtschaftswunders - So kam der Kraftstoff zum Kunden

In the 1950s to the 1980s they were omnipresent: small and large tank trucks that supplied the constantly growing network of petrol stations with fuel and brought heating oil to private households for the cold season.
Today, the iconic trucks with tank trailers have almost disappeared from the streets, because heating with oil has lost its appeal and deliveries to petrol stations are shifted to off-peak times wherever possible.

It is not without reason that the large tank trucks of this period are considered the pinnacle of bodywork construction. In this illustrated book, thanks to numerous archive photos, you will experience how the major fuel brands such as Shell and Esso shaped the appearance of the highly specialized vehicles.
It also becomes clear what a tough job the tank truck drivers had to do, who not only covered long distances but also handled hazardous substances on a daily basis. Immerse yourself in a piece of German post-war history!

• Exciting look at the heyday of mobility during the economic miracle
• An overview of the various models of tank trucks: From Büssing to Mercedes and Schwelm to MAN
• Fuel and heating oil transport in the post-war period: Interesting insights into the tough everyday life of tank truck drivers
• With 240 photos, some of which have not been published, from private and company archives

Zugmaschinen bei Circus- und Schaustellerbetrieben

They are hidden behind brightly lit circus facades, modern carousel giants or simply parked in a side street: the tractors, the indispensable helpers of the travelling trade.
For most circus or fairground visitors they remain undetected. They are used when the fairground still or already resembles a huge construction site.

Marc Trappe was already travelling with his camera to folk festivals in Germany in the 1990s and visited well-known circus companies. Around 600 were selected from his collection of many thousands of photographs, showing a wide variety of vehicles, often with very special body variants.
The author explains the vehicles, provides technical data and looks behind the scenes of the exciting travelling trade. A treasure trove for all commercial vehicle enthusiasts and at the same time a fascinating illustrated book.
