Could he be Eduard Fischer, co-founder of the Austrian arm of the Daimler motor company?

Nope, but as I said earlier, his last name starts with "F"

Over 200 views and not one single guess. Hmm, a hint may be necessary. Once he was a journalist

Nice circle turned

Oh sorry, made a mistake deleting my last comment...

I asked if he was a founder of a car-related paper...

Allemano · « **Reply #40 on:** April 09, 2011, 03:54:51 PM »

founder of an important automobile club?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #41 on:** April 09, 2011, 11:59:03 PM »

let's focus on his journalistic activities

pnegyesi · « **Reply #42 on:** May 15, 2011, 03:41:00 AM »

More than a month and no further questions. Another clue: he was a journalist, a book author and an organiser...

"The first Alpine Trial was held in 1909, in Austria; by 1914, this was the toughest event of its kind, producing a star performance from Britain's James Radley in his Rolls-Royce Alpine Eagle"

This gentleman is connected with the Austrian Alpine Run?

Automobil Welt magazine?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #46 on:** May 17, 2011, 07:52:19 AM »

Was Automobil Welt an Austrian magazine? There were not too many automotive magazines in Austria during the early 1900s...

Yes there was one published in Vienna called that, as well as another from Berlin.
Both current in the 1902-10 era so far as I remember

You're right, but you have to look for another Austrian magazine
