What were cars like at the turn of the century?
This German motor-car from the late 1800's is still street legal!
Have you ever gotten caught up in a chain of hyperfixations where you are obsessed with Dracula Daily so you decide to start your own newsletter of obscure epistolary fiction then you are preparing posts for your newsletter and decide it needs more pictures and suddenly you are researching German motor cars from the 1800s to see which one fits the specs from the novel?
Anyway, enjoy this charming 5- minute video of an 1897 Benz Viktoria that is still street worthy. It gives some good indication of the types of motor mishaps that we will see in The Lightning Conductor.
I may not post next week - It’s going to be a busy one for me. But the week after, I’ll take a closer look at the German cars from the late 1800’s that inspired Molly’s car in The Lightning Conductor.
