Bremen, Hansa-Lloyd und Goliath-Werke Borgward & Tecklenborg, 1932. Broadside; oblong 8 1/4 x 11 1/2; thin, off-white stock, printed in olive green and illustrated with monochrome photographs; a small, closed cut to bottom edge; two faint, intersecting creases through the middle; green stamp of the company and a small, penciled-in note to bottom margin; in very good condition. Carl F. W. Borgward (1890 - 1963), a German engineer and designer, began his career in 1921, when he founded the Bremer Kuhlerfabrik Borgward & Co. and began manufacturing car radiators in Bremen. In 1924, his first automotive design was a small, three-wheel vehicle, the Blitzkarren, or "Lightning Cart," which was used by couriers. In 1929, Borgward partnered with Wilhelm Tecklenborg, acquired the Bremer Hansa Lloyd Werke (a company, established in 1905 and already successfully manufacturing light cars), and thus, co-founded the Borgward Group. Initially developing small trucks, the two came up with their first three-wheel passenger car - the Goliath-Pioneer in 1932 - advertised in the current broadside. In the same year, the company was renamed Hansa-Lloyd und Goliath-Werke Borgward & Tecklenborg. Although very successful, the business had to shift production to military vehicles during the Second World War and in 1944, their Bremen factory was completely obliterated by bombs. Apart from the Goliath-Pioneer, the broadside also advertised, with specifications and prices, the Goliath-Lieferwagen, the Goliath-Standard-K, the Goliath-Standard-S, and the Goliath-Atlas. Very good .

Sakkariia, G. A.

Dvigateli Vnutrennego Sgoraniia. Opisanie Ikh Tipov I Glavneishikh Chastei V Voprosakh I Otvetakh (Internal Combustion Engines. Description of Their Types and Main Components in a Question-Answer Format)

Moskva/Leningrad (Moscow/St. Petersburg), Gosudarstvennoe izdatelstvo, 1928. Second Edition. Second edition, 1 of 5000 copies; 7 3/4 x 5 1/4; pp. [1], 4-168; olive wraps, with black and green illustrations; chips with loss of paper to tips of spine; lacking ffep, else complete; a bit of wear to ccorners and edges; illustrated with 102 drawings and photographic images; overall in very good condition. Although Russia had a long history of building complex machinery, going back to the 18th century, the first Russian-built car with an internal combustion engine was not manufactured until 1896 and, prior to the Soviet Era, the country practically had no automotive industry. In the years following the October Revolution, under Stalin's great pressure for industrialization, massive factories were constructed in several big cities and the need for capable, educated mechanics increased dramatically. The current book, one of the earliest on the subject, described and illustrated in details the parts of the various internal combustion engines and their main principles of operation, with part of it in an easy-to-understand question-answer format. Not in OCLC or in the trade (as of December 2018). Very good .
