'Mars' Motorcycle by Claus Franzenberg



In 1873, Paul Reissmann founded the company mars for the production of cast-iron stoves
in Nuremberg, Germany, followed by the production of hand-, belt- and engine- driven sirens,
grinding machines and bicycles. In1903 he began with the construction of motorcycles
and small cars. the most famous design was the legendary 'white mars', designed by the engineer
Claus Franzenburger in 1920 (the design was available also in red and green color).
during the inflation of 1923/ 1924, the mars company came in economic difficulties.
the brothers john and Karl Mueller, who worked as managers and designers at mars,
took over the plant, but not the brand name. after this change in ownership the mars machines
were distributed under the name 'MA'.


'Mars' is a new acquisition for the Neue Sammlung Collection, the international design museum
in Munich, Germany.


Earlier this summer, 'Mars' was shown at the 'Techno Classica Essen', TCE 2009,
the world show for vintage, classic and prestige automobiles, motor sport, motorcycles,
spare parts and restoration. The 22nd Techno-Classica will take place from 7 to 11 April 2010.

The Macallan 57 Single Malt Scotch Whisky

l





The Highland Distillers of Scotland has announced the release of a special edition, 57-year old edition of its famous The Macallan single malt Scotch whisky. Each year, the Macallan Distillery sets aside a small fraction of the year’s stock to be put in its famous oak casks for aging. This particular scotch is drawn from casks first sealed in 1952, and now opened for your enjoyment. This exceptionally rare scotch is accompanied by a carefully hand-crafted crystal decanter, created by crystal house Lalique. There are only 400 bottles of this extremely rare vintage available to the general public, making it highly desirable to both the collector and the scotch aficionado alike.
