Automobiles and the nobility in the Czech lands 1894-1945 M. Hořejš, J. Křížek and colleagues
The connection between the nobility and the automobile is surprising and unexpected for many people. The nobility is perceived as a conservative community, living in its own world of conservative rituals and completely closed, not only to new advances in science and technology. This myth is only slowly being dispelled and the nobility is being imagined as an independent factor in both the economic sphere and the field of science and technology.

Sketchbook – Václav Zapadlík
With this publication, we would like to introduce to all lovers of the work of Maestro Václav Zapadlík a little-known, but in its own way extremely interesting part of the work of this genius of drawing and painting of historic cars. Here you will find not only sketches, sketches, drawings of cars or their parts, but also pictures of jazzmen or drawings of naked women with seductive curves. Thanks to this composition of unknown pictures, we have come to the conviction that this distinctive, nostalgically magical part of his work must also be presented to the general public and especially to all fans and admirers of the world of historic vehicles.
200 Czechoslovak motoring plaques from the period 1922-1939
For the exhibition POWDER and BENZÍN Troja 2000, the author prepared a catalogue with images of more than 200 commemorative plaques, often created according to the designs of prominent design figures – Španiel, Nušl, Axmann, Švec, Pištora, Pichl and others. Two criteria were decisive for the selection – that the plaque was issued in Czechoslovakia in the period before the Second World War. Motoring plaques are nowadays a narrowly specialized collecting discipline. The publication will provide information and can direct thematic creation of private collections.
