Wow, the pictures are :) great! I don't know, why the author of the article calls the inventor of the foldable car HEINRICH ZASCHKA. The right name of the inventor is ENGELBERT ZASCHKA. Perhaps HEINRICH is an alternate name or a pseudonym for ENGELBERT ZASCHKA. Anyway I like the foldable city car of Zaschka. 

I found two videos of Engelbert Zaschka and his inventions:


1. ZASCHKA Three-Wheeler (in German)

2. An early helicopter trial of Zaschka in Berlin in 1927
