The content of this book is about the story of "100 years of gas station" and it has - of course Wink - nothing to do with Karmann Ghia .....
..... exept there is one of them shown on the cover. Razz

Hello John,

that's absolutely correct Exclamation

The COMPLETE photo of that location in the year 1958 shows it with ARAL advertisement, like it was already posted in the thread of your link: Wink

Hello dear Karmann Ghia friends, Very Happy

in this thread I want to show you some books of my collection.

These books show a Karmann Ghia on it's cover but they don't have any content about Karmann Ghia or cars in general inside of the book. Laughing

If any one of you knows other books like these ... please let me know.
Cool

This one makes no reference to her Ghia in the text despite the book being about her Ghia's car show history?

Absolutely correct Exclamation

And the more it is regrattable, that there is no report about this event inside of the magazine. Confused

Sure ...... but the main subject of the book is not the Karmann Ghia in general.
In my eyes it is mainly a kind of a "journey description". Wink

Oh-kaaaay, haha, but I'd put this one in the 'KG featured big-time in the book' camp.

Regardless, though, she is fun to look at in that cover photo.

Here we have another book, which has not directly anything to do with the Karmann Ghia itself:

Bernd Reuters was a German graphic designer, who made several hand-drawed advertisements for Volkswagen, mainly with Beetles, Busses and Karmann Ghias, but also for a lot of other companies - not only automobile producers.
