EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the sleek lines and powerful presence of the Auto-Union Type A racing car, a machine that would go on to bring German dominance to the Grand Prix circuit in the mid-1930s. The Auto-Union team, funded by the German industrialist, Dr. Ferdinand Porsche, and backed by the Auto Union AG, was a formidable force in the world of motorsport during this period. The Type A, also known as the "Silver Arrow," was a groundbreaking design for its time, featuring a streamlined body, advanced aerodynamics, and a powerful 5.6-liter V12 engine. With its innovative engineering and stunning aesthetics, the Type A quickly became a favorite among racing fans and competitors alike. In the 1936 Grand Prix season, the Auto-Union team and its Type A cars won an impressive eight out of thirteen races, cementing their place in racing history. The team's success was a testament to the technical prowess and determination of its engineers and drivers, and helped to establish Germany as a major force in international motorsport. This photograph captures the essence of the Auto-Union team and its iconic Type A racing car in their prime, a powerful reminder of the thrill and excitement of Grand Prix racing in the 1930s.
