Vic Diehl Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 http://www.kaiserlicherautomobilclub.de/Just wanted to introduce our new website to interested members. This has been a year in the works, but worth every hour. The majority of this information is new and comes form our research in the German Archives using original, primary source documents. Enjoy!Vic Diehl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chip Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Vic,Very interesting material. Thanks for assembling it and making it available. My only suggestion for improvement would be to enlarge many of the photos (if space permits). Best regards,Chip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vic Diehl Posted April 6, 2007 Author Share Posted April 6, 2007 Thanks for your comments. Chip, thanks for your idea about the pics. One problem we ran into working from the US and Germany was the electronic transfer back and forth of pics. Large pics is definitely something we like.

Herr General Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Would you like a photo of the document to the Driver of Prins Bernhard? The later Prince of the Netherlands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roeland Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 great site, it looks great and has much information, drivers aren't really a side of this time-period you hear about, so quite special if you ask me.I myself work in an old car museum where we have the car of Kaiser Wilhelm II, but also other German cars from this periode and ww2(such as sir Winston Churchill his car), so therefore I am very interested in your site of course.

Vic Diehl Posted April 6, 2007 Author Share Posted April 6, 2007 Gentlemen:We really appreciate your support on this project. We would like copies of anything directly related to this study. We also would appreciate any leads to you can give us on uniforms, daggers, pins, etc. This is a long term project for us.It is really interesting to me to discover that the first dress dagger worn by a member of the German Heer happened in World War I. We have learned so much from this project.Vic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it from the time of his exile in Huis Doorn ? Or maybe earlier ? Dank U wel !FlyingdutchmanI'll have to ask if I can give you a pictue, the owner of the collection isn't fond of his cars being shown on internet without permittion.It's a Mercedes N?rnberg 500 from the period of his exile in the Netherlands.A nice fact of the car is that Wilhelm II and the driver where separated by glass but Wilhelm II could give him orders by pressing buttons such as, for example; schnell, links, rechts, zu hause etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Username Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 It's the Audi 10 from 1910 if I'm right ! Anyone happens to know what kind of car this may be ? Cheers, Jerome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avadski Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 It's the Audi 10 from 1910 if I'm right ! That's correct...some more details on German Wikipedia http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audi_Typ_A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Username Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) No I was wrong ,it's the Wanderer Puppchen !!! Only the Puppchen had a 1person driver seat with the 2nd seat behind the driver and the car emblem is the same like on the pic ! The mistake with the audi was because all cars out of this time looks so similar. Here's the wikipedia article: Wikipedia Wanderer Puppchen There's also one for sale for €38000 Wanderer Puppchen for sale Edited April 15, 2011 by Username Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
