Which got your attention first, the 6 wheels, the carpet roof, or the three bench seats? What a world's fair looking extravagence. Beautiful vehicle. I wish I had a year or maker. Reminds me of the 1905 Bordeux Cali limo https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxtFcgBeZI8twbN2RH8Gs_x1kE0zl8-TUV2mZyZYRCpGCS0JEhXA_H3Rx6SwciunJKDmXy_iGQ9yxSUfC0sbCS-zL2ye94qMrjvZ61wYsgB61eJ6z7NzP-zmxZvG9d1mCnMiy_bVW2OEQ/s1600/1905+Bordeaux+Cali+Limousine..jpg
1934 Mercedes DR rail car
1912 Italian 305mm cannon... what in the world pulled, pushed or powered this beast?
Cool looking but simple railway crane
the Pickwick Coach, sleeps 26
Great 1920's or early 1930's 5th wheel tow and trailer
Notice in the above, the front wheel has a direction vane so the driver way at the back of the cab can tell where it will steer

On the road in the mid 1930's, from Beirut to Baghdad, by way of Damascus, reminded me of the 1937 D-35 Jungle Caravan of Commander Gatti http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/09/extraordinary-designer-of-automotive.html
The above was designed by Brooks Stevens, its a 1936 Zephyr Land Yacht
The above is a Curtiss Aerocar trailer. I'd like to see a photo of the rig in the trunk of the car towing it. It reminded me of http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/12/rare-trailer-and-pulling-car-combo.htmlLabels: 5th wheel, Brooks Stevens, camper, Curtiss Aerocar, design, Pixdaus, RV, trailer
