Book excerpt: "In 2009, the Automuseum 'Prototyp' in Hamburg, Germany, organized a special exhibit in Germany or anywhere else in the world: For two months, 23 streamlined automobiles, the body of a record-setting car, and a revolutionary model wind tunnel, all had their aerodynamic rendezvous there. . . . Naturally, so many streamlined cars together were electrifying. Patricia Scholten, daughter of Paul Pietsch, and the Stuttgart Motorbuch-Verlag which she runs, commissioned the Zurich photographer Michel Zumbrunn, who specializes in classic cars, to photograph this unique exhibition of never-before-shown-together streamlined works of art in his own unique style. . . . This history of the streamlined automobile is not illustrated with the black and white photos of former times, used in the relevant books again and again due to the lack of new images; it is illustrated with a porfolio of photograhic art by Zumbrunn and his co-photographer Urs Schmid."--Pages 14-15.
