I think it reads "No 40 people in a restroom." |

I'm surprised it doesn't have the front fresh air scoops, or the rear fender scoops. It does have gravel guards though. _________________ Bob 65 Notch S with Sunroof

"Ich bin ein Berliner".
This famous cafe is located along (West) Berlin's main thoroughfare, the Kurfuerstendamm- aka Ku'damm. Here's a bigger photo of it from Pogel's collection. The vehicles at right are on the intersecting corner of the Joachimsthaler Strasse.
The first photo shows a relatively small/narrow business. Wikipedia clarifies that this is the original cafe location on the "Unter den Linden" avenue which started in 1834. The 2nd photo of the large corner cafe is a later, additional building along the Ku'damm, opened in 1932. The iconic circular rooftop section was added in the late 1950's. |

That's the Königsallee in Düsseldorf. There was a Cafè Kranzler in Frankfurt, too. |
