Holiday Pictures

Post by ThomasD »

These are some winter covers of Karmann-Post magazines I have - thought they were nice pictures for the season.

Maybe others can to post some Scirocco related Christmas / Holiday / Winter pics as well...

Lovely pictures, thanks Tom.

Who publishes/published this magazine?

The only festive Scirocco photo I have is this:

Hi Ed -

Karmann-Post was an employee magazine published by Karmann when they were in business. The magazines were typically about 40 pages, mostly black and white inside, and had articles of interest to the employees - such as coverage of the Karmann booth at auto shows, employee anniversaries, sometimes an employee with a unique hobby was covered. And usually when a new model went into production, there would be a short article about that. The magazine is in German. You can usually find copies on eBay for sale. Detailed articles about automobiles is pretty scarce, but occasionally there is an article or a photo of something interesting.

Best,
Tom

I think it's worth pointing out that, with temperatures comfortably in the positive double-digits, snow isn't looking likely... anyone got any flooded-Scirocco pics?

Nice pictures, Tom :-)

Hopefully no flooded Rocco pics, water and Roccos are a tricky combination, especially for Mk1s.

Nice thread Tom. I doubt we will see pics of your Strom in the snow. :-D Keep it wrapped up warm in the garage.

My old Strom some years ago. And that must be my Bora in the foreground.

Any guesses? Give up? It's my brother's Corrado.

I don't think that Corrado will be going any where with that amount of snow. :shock:
