Das große Simson-Buch - Die Geschichte von Schwalbe, Sperber & Co.

Vehicles from the former GDR are very popular today, especially Simson. The traditional company's bird series, consisting of "Sperber", "Habicht", "Spatz" and "Star", has achieved a special cult status. The "Schwalbe" in particular is considered the most successful model.

In this updated edition, Frank Rönicke reports expertly, informatively and entertainingly on the creation and development of the Simson bird series. Over 350 unique images illustrate this important chapter in the history of East German two-wheeler production.
