Mercedes Benz - Portrait of a Legend
Anbieter: Crappy Old Books, Barry, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Hardback. Zustand: Good. Mercedes-Benz ? Portrait of a Legend (1989) by Ingo Seiff (Macdonald Orbis) is the kind of book that doesn?t just cover a subject, it arrives like the subject: large, confident, and faintly judgemental about your storage options. This is Mercedes history served the proper way ? glossy, weighty, and calmly certain that ?legend? isn?t marketing, it?s merely an accurate description of what?s about to happen to your coffee table. Even the cover sets the tone: a classic Mercedes sports car posed dead-centre on a quiet country lane, as if it?s just taken a dignified turn away from civilisation to remind you that elegance can, in fact, have headlights. It?s moody, composed, and quietly dramatic ? the visual equivalent of shutting a door with perfect alignment. And inside, that same energy continues: the sort of picture-led storytelling that makes you flip pages ?just to look? and then realise you?ve been reading captions like they?re sacred texts. Seiff?s approach is pure Mercedes: detailed without being showy, reverent without being silly, and absolutely committed to the idea that engineering can be a kind of culture. Expect a rich sweep of the brand?s evolution ? the shapes, the standards, the moments of brilliance, and the steady accumulation of that very specific Mercedes aura: we have thought about this more than you have, and we would like you to notice . It?s the perfect book for anyone who loves classic design, old-world build quality, and the gentle thrill of seeing machinery treated like art. Condition: Good , which is ideal for a book that?s meant to be handled, admired, and periodically used to win arguments about ?the golden age.? It?s sold by Crappy Old Books , a seller name that sounds like it should come with an apology, yet somehow keeps producing exactly the kind of hefty, desirable hardbacks that make you forgive them instantly. And yes ? the scan is a bit cropped because the book is too large for the scanner , which honestly feels like the most Mercedes problem possible. The book isn?t being awkward; it?s simply refusing to be reduced. This is, by all accounts, a really big book : part reference, part visual feast, part home décor statement that says ?I enjoy cars? in the same way a grand piano says ?I occasionally play.? If you want a substantial, handsome volume that celebrates Mercedes-Benz with the seriousness it insists upon ? and you don?t mind rearranging a shelf or two to accommodate it ? this is a brilliant, slightly overqualified addition to any motoring or design collection.
