Buses of the First Republic and the Protectorate 1918–1945, Martin Harák
The Retro edition brings to the book market a new book mapping the production of buses and trolleybuses in Czechoslovakia from 1918 to 1948. The three main Czechoslovak car manufacturers controlled the largest part of the market at that time: Praga, Tatra and Škoda. In addition, there were dozens of small and large coachbuilding companies that individually built bus superstructures on various domestic and foreign chassis. Readers will learn about the beginnings of bus and trolleybus production in our country, its heyday in the 1920s and decline during the economic crisis, and the changes that were then brought about by the Second World War and the following years. The rich text is supplemented with construction details, technical parameters and, above all, a number of unique, often never-before-published photographs. We will learn about the lives of important coachbuilders (Sodomek, Uhlík, Peter and others). A suitable Christmas gift for the male population, without age restrictions.

TATRA 813: history, tactical-technical data, modifications, Jiří Frýba
The only comprehensive publication on the development, production and individual versions of the Tatra 813 vehicle is compiled mainly from archival documents of the Central Military Archive/Military Historical Archive Prague. In the introduction, it introduces the reader to the means used to move artillery and very heavy loads after World War II. The main part of the book contains information on the development of the Tatra 813 tractor, on the production of prototypes and their testing, as well as on the design of semi-trailers required by the army. In the most extensive chapter, divided into several parts, you will find tactical and technical data on individual applications of the vehicle, which are supplemented by drawings and photographs of various parts of the vehicle. The basic type of the Tatra 813 8 × 8 tractor (Kolos) is described in the most detail, from which the entire unified series is based. For other versions, including civilian ones, mainly design changes are presented. The appendices contain not only descriptions of the tractor's semi-trailer equipment and the use of T 930 series engines in individual vehicles, but also color photographs of the T 813 vehicles and their successor, the T 815.

1000 Czechoslovak mils 1933, 1934, 1935, Petr Kožíšek
To give a concise overview of the extensive content, it is possible to write that the representative publication captures the author's dedication to the specific discipline of automobile racing, held with various variations up to the present day. The intention of the first year of the competition, which began to be prepared in the Autoklub na Opletalová in February 1933, was to promote the domestic automobile industry affected by the economic crisis. The description of the three pre-war years takes up two-thirds of the publication's content. Some of the original photographs of the competition cars were stored in the archives of the Technical Museum, photos of the prototypes were discovered quite by chance in an unused archive, another series of photographs were borrowed from family albums of generations that know the direct participants only from preserved oral memories. Details of the individual years are presented by copies of the period press. Several original photographs show factory cars that never participated in any other races or competitions; after the end of the first year of the "miles", they were destroyed by the manufacturer - they did not live up to expectations. The following pages describe the commemorative years starting in 1970, when there were already enough enthusiastic owners of historic vehicles across the country. The last part contains the lists of starters and the results tables of the pre-war years.
Maintenance and repairs of ČZ 125 and 150C motorcycles, Augustin Šulc, Karel Šulc, Augustin Šulc jun.
Grada introduces a new book, it was ready for printing in 1955, but unfortunately it was not published then. Its content is articles that were published in the magazine Svět Motorů in the years 1953–1955. In them, the Šulc brothers devoted themselves to the maintenance and repair of the best-selling ČZ motorcycles, which are still the most widespread among collectors and veterans today. Many motorcyclists keep their motorcycles in good condition, but there are few who can adjust their motorcycle correctly, and even fewer who can find a fault and fix it. Why? Because they do not know their motorcycle. That is why we want to help them. With these words, the Šulc brothers began a series of 25 articles that were to be published in a sequel, and which they planned to publish as a manual. They covered in detail riding techniques (breaking in a new motorcycle, riding uphill, riding in the dark), maintenance (cleaning, lubricating, chain tensioning, adjusting brakes, caring for tires), but also more complex topics (disassembling the carburetor, adjusting the igniter, regrinding the cylinder, wheel alignment, engine repairs, removing and installing bearings, and other technical details. The articles are supplemented with technical photographs from the ČZ archive, comments on repair procedures from a contemporary perspective, and assessments of what is usable and what is not. The Šulc brothers' insider advice will certainly be appreciated by the entire community of veteran bikers even after years.

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.
The Road to Favorit, Jan Králík
The author knew more than thirty-three years ago that the long and, above all, thorny path of development and production of the Favorit passenger car was worth carefully documenting. He had to reject the ideas of that time, he waited and waited! Developing anything new while trying to comply with the extensive tangle of many restrictions and prohibitions resulting from completely meaningless regulations was completely impossible during the years of normalization. Even though the original idea to produce a new type of passenger car within the framework of the Common Market came from the highest party positions. But the design tendencies of world car manufacturers indicated significantly different solutions from the originally intended ones. The gradual development, sometimes even illegal, was taken up by the administrative people in Mladá Boleslav. The amount of work with development and then with the preparation of production was unimaginable, but the people were enthusiastic. The most energy and time was taken up by the battles with the „windmills“ – at that time in the form of the state apparatus. When the Favorit was put into production, the leaders were melting in superlatives. Just like Ing. Andrej Barčák, then director of the PZO Motokov business group: "The Favorit was a groundbreaking project for Škoda. Škoda designed and then produced a car comparable to their European competition under significantly worse conditions. At the beginning, there were just a lot of restrictions, nothing was approved, big risks were taken, but Škoda had no reason to be ashamed of the result."„

Central Bohemian Races and Circuits, A Century of Central Bohemian Road Racing, Jaroslav Kotrbáček and Jiří Wohlmuth
Acceptable distances between populated places, as well as a good road network in Central Bohemia, have made it possible to write an interesting history of racing in this region. Long-distance races, hill races and city circuits began to be held here more than 110 years ago. In many towns, racing had only a fleeting existence and after the first year, no more followed (Kralupy nad Vltavou, Vlašim, Horoměřice, Roztoky u Prahy). However, there were places where racing took place for several decades (Městec Králové – 40 years; Kolín – 16 years; Mělník – 13 years). For each of the thirty-nine places, the authors found the exact race routes, information from the organizing activities and result lists with the names of competitors, both known and unknown, and spiced everything up with interesting facts from the period press. Witnesses will reminisce over the pages, and representatives of the younger generations will wonder where and on what roads the racers fought for supremacy.
Ace of Hearts, Miloslav Souček
With the warm words of the foreword by Prof. Pavek, which will set the reader in the right mood, the author slowly begins to unwind a continuous strip of memories. About his apprenticeship in a car repair shop and his first contacts with motorcycle handlebars, about exploring off-road motorcycle races. It is absolutely natural that Míla Souček likes to remember motorcycle sports in the colors of the army team - of course, after all, he was young, healthy and overcame random life obstacles with a smile. A separate chapter in his life, to which the author likes to return, is the period of motorcycle competitions with participation in the Six-Day Motorcycle Competition in Zlín in 1955. Between the lines, the perceptive reader can sense the devotion to motorcycles from Divišov. With ESO motocross specials of all three cubic capacities, he achieved success for our colors on tracks included in the European Championship. The last pages of the memories belong to motocross in Stříbr in 1963.
Reminisce with the author, recall the names and motocross tracks in the country and abroad.
