In 2025, the »Nationale Automobilmuseum - The Loh Collection« presents a globally unique compilation of Grand Prix racing icons. In this magnificent book, written by successful author Jörg Walz, these race cars are described in great detail and presented with exclusive photographs: from Nuvolari's 1935 Alfa Romeo Tipo B to the Maserati 250 F, in which Fangio won his fifth world championship title in 1957, to the Silver Arrows from Mercedes-Benz and Auto Union. All these legendary cars have never been on public display before in this constellation. The history of Grand Prix racing is also presented, from its beginnings to the current Formula 1 anniversary season.

Born on the racetrack, elevated to a global brand through Enzo Ferrari's dedication, nurtured by the passion of its fans and drivers, every Ferrari is an experience - as is this magnificent work, initiated and inspired by the National Automuseum - The Loh Collection. Celebrated author, Jörg Walz, presents the most beautiful, the most glorious and the fastest of the red racers from Maranello.

Altogether, it’s an extraordinary collection conceived and collated for the Ferrari connoisseur.

#PorschePur … is the name of the photo series that marked the start of this project. From the 356 to the 911 GT2 RS, from Porsche no. 1 to the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Executive, from Le Mans to the Nürburgring, from the Rallye Monte Carlo to Dakar, from James Dean and Hans Herrmann to Mark Webber and Neel Jani – this book retraces the rich and varied history of the Porsche brand and its models. In this book are all the sports car models as well as the race cars with which the brand has earned its laurels in sporting competition. The visual story is told by means of unique photography – of highly detailed miniatures in 1:43 scale, photographed in the actual surroundings – be it at the Nürburgring, in Hong Kong, Los Angeles, Paris or any other place on earth. The camera used in all cases is an iPhone. The photos – and the profound text – were originated by long-standing motoring journalist, book author and communications professional Jörg Walz. His “Instagram car park” has grown to become a unique automotive museum with space for more than 1,000 cars. A large proportion of this collection is portrayed in this unique book – enjoy!
