Description:

The German Tour, May 28 - June 2 1935. Compulsary Landing at Overwiesenfeld Airfield: Sunday, June 1, 1935.

The 1935 German Tour "Deutschlandflug", an annual event sponsored by the German Sport Flying League, was a skill and endurance test for the participating aviators. The circuit began and ended in the German capital Berlin; in between, the pilots had to make six stops in designated cities around the country on each of the six days of the race, covering more than 3,000 miles. One hundred fifty four airplanes formed 30 competing teams from cities across Germany. The race was won by four pilots from Danzing, flying Klemm monoplanes.

This poster has information about the compulsary landing at the Oberwiesenfeld airfield outside Munich, so that local people could see part of the race.
