Thanks for the photos Alexander. The Goeland is beautiful. Those fenders are fantastic. Very functional design, how they wrap around the sides of the tires.

I've published a couple of beauties to my site, particularly interesting because they are extremely early examples of the maker's work.

The Herse, n° 23 of 1945 is the earliest Rene Herse I have ever seen. Does anyone know of an earlier one?
