Those are some fun old catalogs Ulrich, thanks for posting them!
I was especially interested in the Karl Bub catalog, I've heard of Bub but didn't know much about them. Interesting in one respect, they used the word "tank" when I would have expected them to use "panzer" or "panzerwagen." I guess "tank" takes up a lot less space!
I'm going to have to take some time and explore those! Thanks for the links!
Trains, trains, wonderful trains. The more you get, the more you toot!
