I was wondering if there are any 3rd Reich racing aficionados in this forum? If so, I have a question. I have been offered a large collection of negatives from the family of a motorcycle racer who competed in the Nürburgring circuit during the mid to late 1930's and was also an avid photographer of that sport as well as auto racing at the same track.
I was wondering if original images of that genre are rare and desirable or if they are rather common and not so desirable because it was such a popular sport and many people photographed the events (i.e. like NASCAR now). I am trying to gauge if the collection is worth the price that the seller wants. Here are some representative images to let you see the themes and their quality:
Thanks for looking!
