This poster talks of a speech by Hitler on September 30, 1942, where he claimed that Churchill invented the bombing of civilians in May 1940. May 1940 was also the month that the Germans bombed Rotterdam to ruins. The bombings of Germany did nothing to break the German spirit however. Yesterday on German (or perhaps Austrian) television a German historian kindly explained that the Allied bombings weren't war crimes, because they weren't any specific rules about it.

Archduke Franz Ferdinand was shot in this car by Gavrilo Princip. I didn't know the car still existed. A real historic experience. The car is a Gräf & Stift with a double phaeton body. It is powered by a 4 cylinder engine with 32 HP. The car belonged to Franz Graf Harrach.
