Please tell me everything you know about this expedition. Identifying the man and the approximate time will be worth a point.

Does it say Norway on the rear wheel? Was the picture taken in Kristianstad, Sweden?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #6 on:** May 14, 2011, 11:42:09 PM »

The picture was definitely not taken in Sweden, though it may say Norway on the rear wheel

Is the year 1933?

Yes, the picture is from 1933 - sorry missed your earlier question

Was the photo taken in a Scandinavian country?

The Netherlands?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #17 on:** May 16, 2011, 02:36:02 AM »

This photo itself wasn't taken in The Netherlands... (hint, hint)

guido66 · « **Reply #18 on:** May 16, 2011, 05:27:07 AM »

So the left car does have a Dutch registration? L-4 is a very low number, so it must have been an important person in Utrecht.

pnegyesi · « **Reply #19 on:** May 16, 2011, 05:38:38 AM »

This expedition has strong Dutch connections

guido66 · « **Reply #20 on:** May 16, 2011, 02:13:14 PM »

A bit of architectural puzzling has convinced me that it must be in Kristianstad. The 1st photo is from before the 1936-1940 extension and modification of the city hall, during which time they also must have altered the facade slightly. The 2nd photo is a present day detail of the "Pax Vobis" inscription.

pnegyesi · « **Reply #21 on:** May 16, 2011, 02:25:55 PM »

It is not Kristianstad. Photo-location is not important - I think

guido66 · « **Reply #22 on:** May 16, 2011, 02:43:07 PM »

I know that I'm stubborn but I'm convinced that your source is wrong about the city.

Anyway, Kristianstad seems to be a dead end, so I'll take another approach:

Was it a pole to pole journey?

DeAutogids · « **Reply #23 on:** May 16, 2011, 03:27:43 PM »

Any connection with Norway?

Even though it might be not important for solving this puzzle I guess guido66 is right saying that these buildings are identical. Even the neighbour building is the same.
