The body and door are local manufacture, although the factory built sedan delivery did have suicide doors.
The photo was taken in 1936 however, as the Saga Theater across the street is showing the 1935 Austrian movie "Der Kosak und die Nachtigall" which translates into English as "The Cossack and the Nightingale" and into Norwegian as "Kosakken og Nattergalen."
The movie starred the Czech soprano Jarmilas Novotna and the marquee shows both "Kosakken og Nattergalen" and "Jarmilas Novotna." Although filmed in 1934 and debuting in Austria in June 1935, the movie was not released in Scandinavia until September 1936.

Thanks Steve!
Jesse, there's a loud speaker on top of that poll. Can you see the wiring raped around it? These guys are driving around town broad casting something. It almost looks like a command truck. That is wild.
ReplyDeletei think that "js" is right - a loudspeaker. That would also explain that what is in front of the guy as a microphone.
