While rummaging through our magazine archive, we came across some magazines that were obviously the product of an Austrian-Swiss collaboration.
"Austro-Motor" was the name of the magazines that appeared in the 1940s and 1950s, and they called themselves "Fachzeitschrift für Weltmotorwesen".
The topics covered in the 32 to 48-page issues ranged from the motor show to tractors and commercial vehicles. The title page was usually adorned with a hand-painted illustration.
We can't say much about the background, but perhaps one of our readers can tell us more?
