NUREMBERG 2010 SHOW

Please note that all the pictures below were published on GreatModels Facebook Fan Page. Please become a fan to access daily updates about NEW releases and updated

The overall sense of the show was very positive. When I arrived on Saturday, the cars were parked all the way on the Grosse Strasse, almost to the Kongress Hall. 

I took a morning off to take pictures of the existing Nazi historical building of Nuremberg. I was fascinated by how much history is still remaining after 75 years since 1933!
