Back to some more photographs from the camera of Austrian photographer Artur Fenzlau...from the mid 1950's period....

I'm in a folder I saved some photos of Artur Fenzlau's taken during 1957 in events in Austria.
I've done some four other posts of his photos...easily accessed with the search facility on the RHS on this blog...type in Fenzlau....

Again acknowledgement is made to the Technical Museum of Austria in Vienna ....  http://www.technischesmuseum.at/
Aand the estate of the late Artur Fenzlau for this non commercial posting of these photographs...
Most were unlabelled and not having a program etc I can't help here...but I suspect they were at the hillclimb in a Vienna suburb.

 A couple from a meeting in 1959 and 1960....

And finally some BMW Rennsport photos, some have been displayed before....

Following earlier posts of Artur Fenzlau and his camera...great, sharp, interesting photographs-- I'm presenting another selection taken on the 17th of October 1936 during practice and racing on a hill climb circuit on the outskirts of Vienna, Austria.

In earlier posts I presented a selection on photos taken by Austrian photographer Artur Fenzlau during practice and racing on a hill climb circuit on the outskirts of Vienna, Austria on 17th October 1936....
Superb, interesting photographs and I acknowledge the copyright to the family of the late Artur Fenzlau and the Technical Museum of Austria in Vienna, who hold the original negatives and digitised them for our enjoyment...

Again more Artur Fenzlau...I'm quite addicted to the great photographs of this Austrian motorcycle and motor racing photographer....this time in 1957....

I'm quite addicted to these photographs that are available to look at on the Technical Museum of Austria, Vienna's website....
We are still with the Austrian photographer, Artur Fenzlau....
Such great photographs, I just have to share a selection with you....
Same hill-climb in Vienna and the hills nearby. 
This time in 1957 and I've included a couple of interesting car photos.....
So again I acknowledge my non commercial use of this archive.....
The hill climb appears to have been around 31st March 1957, and the weather was obviously cold and raining throughout the day, even mist around.
On the cobble stone surface grip was at a premium and as you'll see, some riders and drivers came unstuck....
Hopefully only their pride was hurt....
