A particularly memorable benchmark of prosperity was the acquisition of the first car, partly for business and partly for pleasure. . . . . Expending 2,000 DM seemed like a big risk, but the greater ability to each his clients paid for handsomely. Hoping to sell his machines over the Ruhr Basin, Rolf Bulwin also needed an automobile. In order to get around with his samples, he bought a used Opel and was very proud to be able to take his family on trips during the weekend. When he first decided to become an independent consultant, Horst Grothus purchased a used VW Beetle and had it repainted. In many post-war recollections this motorization is an important caesura documented by proud photos (Image 23). It signaled growing affluence. ~ Page 293
