An imposing stone building with arcaded ground floor stands in ruins. Neo-classical pillars and heraldic beasts are carved on the frontage. A painted notice in German is propped up on the first floor. It reads, "Nicht argern nur wundern!' ( Don't be angry - only marvel). This may reflect the distaste that some Germans had for the destruction they were ordered to make.

VISITING MOTHER KRUMMEL, RICE, KANSAS: Engel Christiana Ernestine Kirchoff married Lewis Krummel in Hamburg, Germany in 1877. By 1884, they had four children, Charles 6, Frieda 4, Amanda 1 and baby Max. They left Hamburg that year and sailed to America. They settled in Rice, Kansas. Many German immigrants lived there. Lewis necame a tenant farmer. In 1890, he bought the land he farmed. The Krummels all became naturalized citizens. When WWI started, they never spoke German again.

This shows a cavalry unit in a ruined French town. The men have dismounted and a few stand by the horses, while the rest are looking at the ruins. The German policy of devastating towns and villages as they retreated was designed to demoralise both the former inhabitants and the Allied troops.

 

A notice on the wall in German reads, 'zum Tilloy - Kronprinz Rupprecht weg und zer [?]ossen strasse.' Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria (1869-1955) was a professional soldier and commander of the 6th German Army.

...in Word und Schrift

A German language version of the brochure that describes the new corporate identity of British Rail's Railfreight division that was introduced in 1987. The sector itself had been created in 1982 to better manage the freight traffic on the rail network.

 

The identities were based on the sub-sectors of the business, according to the nature of the product carried; coal, metal, aggregates, oil or petroleum, LPG, petro-chemicals, and construction materials. As well as the bold symbols for the sectors, depot plates were produced alongside an eyecatching new livery for the locomotives in the sector pool. The designs were produced, as was this brochure, by the graphic design concern of Roundel Design Group. The brochure was, I suspect, produced for the 1988 IVA industry exhibition held in Hamburg, Germany.

 

These pages - Ein Ausdruck einer neuen identität - an expression of a new identity shows a Class 47 diesel locomotive in BR's corporate livery and how treated in the new Railfreight identity.

"Das arme Mariechen" (The Poor Little Marie). German children's book with verses by Hertha v.d. Knesebeck and images by Else Wenz-Vieror. Published by Gerhard Stalling Oldenburg IO who copyrighted in Germany in 1930.

The following photos scarcely comprise all found within the storyline.

A small booklet giving details of the many attractions of holidays in Hungary; undated it is very much in the contemporary design style of the mid-1930s when the Hungarian tourist authorities used many such publicity images.

 

This artwork, of a couple in national or folk costume, is taken from a 1931 poster designed by artist and designer Arisztid Uher (1914 - 1945?). The cover appears to have been used, as was the poster, in a variety of languages.

Die Linachtalsperre in Vöhrenbach (Schwarzwald-Baar-Kreis, Baden-Württemberg) ist eine 25 Meter hohe und 143 Meter lange Talsperre (Pfeilerstaumauer) aus Beton. Sie ist die einzige Gewölbereihenstaumauer in Deutschland und steht unter Denkmalschutz. Aus Kostengründen wurde diese materialsparende Bauweise gewählt. Weitere Beispiele für das Konstruktionsprinzip einer solchen Staumauer in „aufgelöster Bauweise“ gibt es unter anderem in Belgien, Italien, Frankreich, der Schweiz und in den USA. In Deutschland gibt es nur noch eine andere Pfeilerstaumauer: die Oleftalsperre. Diese wurde allerdings in Pfeilerzellenbauweise gebaut.

 

The Linachtalsperre in Vohrenbach (Schwarzwald-Baar-Kreis, Baden-Württemberg) is a 25 meter high and 143 meter long dam (buttress dam) of concrete. It is the only arch dam row in Germany and is a protected monument. For cost reasons, this material-saving design was chosen. Other examples of the principle of construction of such a dam in "loose construction" there is including Belgium, Italy, France, Switzerland and the USA. In Germany there is only one other buttress dam: the Oleftalsperre. However, this was built in the pillar cell design.
