Carrying glass French stylee.

Not sure 2nd pic is for carrying glass though, way too big for pane sizes then? Moveable advertizing hoarding is my guess.

The top car is a Skoda and the advert was a dig at the "other" Czech car manufacturer of the 1930s!

 Plus ca change!

Well I've seen that image many times but never realised the top car was a Škoda. 

Oddly, or perhaps not, Škoda came up with something that looked very similar to the Tatra T77 just a year later in 1935. 

The Škoda 935 Dynamic. 

It had a flat 4 rear engine albeit water cooled and mounted in front of the rear axle so it may have been a bit more stable than the Tatra. Then again possibly not if the camber on the rear wheels is anything to go by. It even had a tubular backbone chassis. I've never seen anything saying that they did blatantly copy the Tatra but the similarities look more than coincidental. I mean these days you could never copy a car from scratch within a year, what with all the development and testing but in those simpler times it may have been possible especially as it was a one off prototype. 

It's a shame it was a one off but at least it does still exist.
