I have found this 1972 AMAG poster. Size is +/-60×100cm.
They have bring this bug with an helicopter at highest peak of Switzerland (Pointe Dufour, 4634m). That was a cool way to celebrate 19 years of 1st place of Swiss car sellers.

This book has every VW paint code up to 1960 in it. Over 100 colors I recently traded it for some other cool items but I've scanned it in its entirety if you dant have them Everett. |

I have a question for the literature gurus.
My wife said when she a kid, she remembers seeing a book on Volkswagen in the school library that contained transparencies of exploded views of the car (or parts of the car). This book would have been published in the '60s or '70s. She says she never should have returned the book, and has been looking for one ever since.
Is anybody aware of a book that has some transparency overlays? The only one I've ever heard of was the pre-war Trans Art book, and that's not it. I've been searching the literature classifieds and eBay with no luck. _________________ We are striving for perfection, to make our cars run forever, if possible.

Yes, I never tried to make a section because they are too large to scan and photos might be strange, even though it would be interesting.
I have a few calendars and have posted some photos in the Gallery in the past
If you want to make a new "Calendar" Forums thread of the covers, that would be neat. You have more than me to make a good start to a thread.
Here are a few covers I have posted:
1959
1960
1965
1967
1958 pocket calendar
1969 pocket calendar

This watercolor painting from the German graphic artist Ernst van Husen was made for an advertising brochure from ARAL.
This is the original painting ! It came up for sale with some more submissions for this brochure some years ago, unfortunately I didn't buy more of them
Ernst van Husen has designed some brochures directly for VW too, but he is not as well-known as the famous Bernd Reuters.
He also made some very nice watercolor paintings for the booklet "Die kleine Reise"
