TEI #5 - Solved: Steiger 10/50 poster by Julius Engelhard, 1925.

Part of a fine art poster from the 1920s. It has been cropped top and bottom.

Can you name the car for a point? The model would be a bonus, but it's not essential.

Another point is up for grabs if you can name the artist responsible for the poster.

It's not an 11/55, but Steiger is correct, and good enough for a point. Well done!

The top of the radiator is the most distinctive feature, and is quite accurately portrayed in the poster, despite the stylised artwork. The photo below shows it clearly.

Now, would anyone like to identify the artist? It should be a bit easier now.
