A racing automobile with its bonnet adorned with great tubes like serpents with explosive breath ... a roaring motor car which seems to run on machine-gun fire, is more beautiful than the Victory of Samothrace.»

motor cars (Unknown manufacturer, tin toy models) on the road bend (Bush model building item, Road Curve, ΗΟ/ΤΤ 1103).
