My wife gave me this letter from a dealership press release kit provided by VWoA. I know nothing about these things but am a little surprised it doesn't look more official. Perhaps it allows the dealerships to copy it to their own letterhead?

This is a standard newspaper press release that would have been sent out with publicity photos of the new models. It would then then be published as "boilerplate" copy, exactly as written because the newspaper's advertising department wanted to keep the Volkswagen dealer buying ad space! Usually the only addition to the copy would be to add information about the local dealership. |
Cool! Thanks for the update. _________________ Erik

does anyone know this manual?
i think its a price booklet?
it says its for
VW-personewagen
VW-transporter
aug of 55 on the inside cover
and also says arbeitspeise fur instandsetzungen
from what i translated the first part of the word translated to "labor cost"
if people have a exact answer that would be great

Hi Jake,
I don't know the booklet, but you are right, that it is price booklet. "Instandsetzungen" is a german word for repairs. So I think, that in this book were several repairs with the labor costs listed.

Here are some papers from my collection. In addition to various operating manuals, brochures and advertisements as I have a daily newspaper from 13.08.1938, were the KdF-Wagen was presented and a "Sparkarte":

Bought a book from 1957 at the market today. It is titled Motor Manual's Used Car Market.
It gives valuations of used cars. It is interesting in the VW section. What we call 25 and 36 hp engines, they call 75 and 77 engines.

not sure if this came from a dealer or as a ad in the paper
hij bespaart= it saves
after 100000 kilometers you would almost have your investment back
sure
