Sorry if it's posted already or is covered elsewhere. This is a cool picture but the suicide doors for one are something I've not seen/heard of before? Any ideas

If I am not mistaken, those appear to be W30 prototypes, perhaps from around 1937.

They're 30 years old, so they're vintage.

That's the same car VW used in its advertising, and the first split VW I ever saw a picture of. I wonder where it is now?
