ENG: This publication deals with the remarkable history of the twelve-cylinder sports cabriolet Tatra 80 which was purchased by the prominent industrialist Dr. Heinrich Schicht in 1931. The history is documented from the car's first presentation at the Trade Fair Palace, through the repeated threats of its vanishing, to the demanding renovation after which it took a symbolic journey to locations of its original use: Ústí nad Labem and Prague. This richly illustrated book was written and compiled by Ing. arch. Pavel Kasík, a leading internationally-recognized expert on historic Tatra vehicles.

Škoda, Tatra, Trabant, Wartburg, Polski Fiat, Dacia, Oltcit, Moskvich, Lada, Volga and other brands were an integral part of the pre-November era. Sometimes we turned our noses up at them and longed for something better. However, most of us had no choice. Today we can laugh about it, but we should not forget. Not only about that time, but also about the cars we drove back then.

Did you know that the TATRA 815 had superstructures for laying railway tracks, building bridges or handling scrap metal? All this and much more will be covered in a new book entitled: "TATRA 815 - a legend on posters and in brochures, 1983-2024", authored by publicist Martin Kupec. The book will feature, from his collections and the collections of his fellow collectors, brochures and posters of the original T 815, gradually modernized versions of the T 815-2, TERRN°1, TERRA, or variants such as the T 815-6 or JAMAL up to the T 815-7 FORCE. It will also include posters and brochures for the Paris Dakar, Tatra expeditions around the world and, in particular, various superstructures produced by other manufacturers, both existing and now defunct. The development of advertising will be supplemented with technical data, information on exports and other interesting facts. The introductory pages of a total of 17 chapters will also feature additional drawings of vehicles by the artist Ing. Arch. Jan Hlavín. The expert advisor is Ing. Milan Olšanský, a TATRA TRUCKS employee.
