This is a fine, complete example of the last issue of the superb oversized Third Reich magazine Motor Schau ever published. This issue was a Vierteljahresheft, a quarterly issue for July, August and September 1944. The first page of this 44 page issue explains that due to the all-out war, publication was no longer possible as manpower was needed for the Wehrmacht. Readers were thanked for their loyalty and were asked for their understanding. Subscribers would not receive a refund. Subscription money owed would be donated to the WHW charity.
