Welche Farbe, glauben Sie, hätte dieser geheimnisvolle Wagen gehabt?
Wir hoffen, Sie hatten alle ein schönes Wochenende. Es ist wieder Zeit für ein neues Montagsrätsel. Dieses Foto wurde von Piet Geirnaert eingesandt. Er vermutet, dass der Vorkriegswagen auf dem Foto entweder ein Automobilwerk Richard & Hering, ein Mercedes oder ein AGA ist. Was meinen Sie: Ist es einer dieser drei? Oder sind Sie sich zu 100 % (oder 99 %) sicher, dass dieser Vorkriegswagen definitiv von einer anderen Marke stammt?
Außerdem haben wir diese Woche noch eine weitere interessante Frage für Sie. Wie Sie sehen, handelt es sich um ein sepiafarbenes Foto, auf dem keine Farben zu erkennen sind. Aber welche Farbe, glauben Sie, hatte dieser Wagen zu dem Zeitpunkt, als das Foto aufgenommen wurde?
Bitte kommentieren Sie unten, wenn Sie helfen können, dieses Rätsel zu lösen oder unsere Frage zur Farbe dieses Vorkriegswagens zu beantworten.

Colour is almost impossible to identify: any photograph taken before Kodak's Panchromatic film introduced around 1930 will render almost any colour outside the blue spectrum as a dark shade. We can say definitely that this car is not blue, and I would suggest it is not black, as the body appears to be a slightly paler shade than the wings, but otherwise it could be red, green, even bright yellow! There is a well-known photograph of a 1916 Saxon known as the Golden Flyer which is documented as being yellow with dark blue lettering - the photograph shows a dark coloured car with light coloured lettering!

Judging by the shape of the radiator emblem I'd say without a doubt, it's a Rex-Simplex made by Automobilwerk Richard & Hering A.G. We can only guess what colour it was, but black is the most likely.

In my opinion, the car in the photo is neither a Mercedes nor an AGA (nor is it a Dürkopp - another possibility, if one looks at the badge on the typically German v-shaped radiator).
One detail is highly distinctive: the single lateral louvre in the engine hood. Even if the rest of the body is different you'll find the crucial details on the car in the attached picture from my collection of German prewar-car photos. On the original print "Rex-Simplex" is legible on the radiator badge. This marque refers to the Hering & Richard company located in Ronneburg (East Germany) which Piet Geirnaert mentioned in his post.
For a long time, Rex-Simplex or the manufacturer Hering Richard, respectively, was believed to have not continued to build cars after WW1, yet an increasing number of postwar photos such as the one from Piet Geirnart (and the one from my collection) show that they actually did!
As for the question regarding the original colour of the car in Piet Geirnarts photo, I'd suggest a pretty dark one...
