(from General Motors
Press Release) Nostalgia in Ice and Snow
Heart-warming winter scenes convey a sense of life in the fifties
and sixties
Rüsselsheim. Everything used to be better! Everything? There were
definitely proper winters in the middle of the last century, at
least according to the nostalgic press and calendar photos published
by Opel in the fifties and sixties. The motto of the time was “make
the most out of life and discover something new”. The economic
miracle fuelled the desire for enhanced mobility and things were on
the up once again. The winter images showcase the wide Opel model
range and display the photographic style of the period, thereby
reflecting the spirit of a dynamic era.
