Porsche Archive(s) Unlocked: 100 Rarities from Zuffenhausen - Hardcover

by Jan-Henrik Muche (Author)

For the first time in their history, the Zuffenhausen-based company Porsche is presenting 100 extraordinary and often previously unseen exhibits from the depths of the company archive.

Since the foundation of the Porsche design office 75 years ago, the archive has been part of the company and the Porsche brand. It is the company's memory and database, filled with hundreds of thousands of exhibits. As a result, not every item on the inventory list can be shown to museum visitors. For the first time in their history, the Zuffenhausen-based company is presenting 100 extraordinary and often previously unseen exhibits from the depths of the company archive.

In close cooperation with experts and historians from the Porsche Corporate Archives, automotive journalist and Porsche expert Jan-Henrik Muche has compiled a selection of the most interesting archive documents and exhibits and tells their amazing stories. Specially taken photos are flanked by historical footage and never-before-seen photographs from the archive.
