Summary
[edit]DescriptionMAW Motorised bicycle, Magdeburg May 1990.jpg |
English: This time, a wider angle Black and white photograph of the same subject known as a Chicken Scarer or Hühnerschreck locally.
The engine is marked MAW. That it was found in Magdeburg is significant because the MAW Fahrradanbaumotor was made there by the VEB Messegeräte und Armaturenwerke Karl Marx in Magdeburg Buckau. There is some information about AMO and MAW cycle motors in English in this site which states that these motors were produced here between 1954 and 1959. The tell-tale pool of oil on the pavement indicates that this bike was often left here. The engine was 50cc ....lots of nice pictures and date on that site. Known in common parlance as the Hühnerschreck or chicken scarer (thanks to @H.-D.N.- see comment on the link) |
