    I just bought it as a place marker. Decided that I didn’t want it that much.

    and to top it off, plenty of the boxes were mislabeled and when we opened them, even we were surprised.

    Only photos or text as well?

    If so, German only text or bi-lingual ?

    As mentioned before in post #5453, zero text. That means no text.
    Mr. Wilhelm is a well known German automobile photographer, not an author.

    For this kind of money it should be quite extraordinary. What's your impression, Marcel?

    € 350,00 for a book containing only photos but without any photo captions.

    This must be an "Art" book. It is definitively NOT a car book (even if all the photos show cars).

    That's the price you pay in two years at eBay for these books. :)

    Whenever they say, 'Prestigious and with high collectible value', it's a very red flag.

    Absolutely no information about the books available anywhere. Wolfgang Wilhelm doesn’t even mention them on his own Instagram account ... Don’t seem to be much important.
