Sleeping Beauties: Schlafende Schönheiten - Halwart Schrader
Herbert Hesselmann war es in den 80er Jahren gelungen, den morbiden Charme einer einzigartigen Sammlung von Oldtimern einzufangen. Er versprach seinerzeit dem Besitzer, niemals Namen und Ort bekannt zu geben. Die Story aber und die Bilder gingen um die Welt und dieser Band bringt die Fotos in Topqualität und vor allem: viel neues Material, die Fortsetzung des Automärchens ... Back in the 80s, Herbert Hesselmann managed to capture the morbid charm of a unique collection of vintage cars. At the time, the photographer promised never to disclose the identity of the owner or tell anyone where he kept his collection. The story and the pictures went round the world, though, and this volume presents the photographs again in excellent quality. What's more, it includes a wealth of new material to keep the fairy tale alive ... Text by Halwart Schrader: Halwart Schrader is editor of over 100 Books and one of the leading motoring writers.
