Hello guys (girls?), I have started my own website with all Mercedes Benz brochures I have collected the last
35 years, so if you are interested look here: http://oudemercedesbrochures.nl/Engels_index.html ,I've
just started some weeks ago so it will change about every week.
I hope you like it and if you have suggestions please let me know.

Greetings: Ger.

Ger. Thank you for sharing, indeed very nice!

PS. Wish I had one of them in German or English for my 280, guess I have to learn Dutch now

should not be to difficult....

Great collection!
I have the 230SL brochure and a 250SL "supplement". Never did see the 280SL brochure that Gerster has, just brochures that included all the MBs. Also have full brochures on the 600, 300SE coupe/conv, 250SE coupe/conv, and other misc stuff.

I will place more English and German brochures in the future, I first intended to make my Site only in Dutch
but I've noticed that there are a lot of viewers from all over the world so I will place more English or American
brochures in the future.

Very nice indeed. We have an article pending for Pagoda World showing a number of the brochures related to the 113. The Faszination book also has a nice reference in the back with the 113 brochures.

Ger, You are the man!!! Much appreciated

I scanned the one I've purchased, it has only four (4) pages (Produced by Daimler Benz Stuttgart Germany ~ it has a marking from ALL TIME GREATS GROUP 5 NO 33 on it) I'll be happy to e-mail you the four (4) colored pages it is in English, should you need them. There is no Copyright note on it anywhere so I guess it is okay to include it in your web site, as said should you need it. The heading is Mercedes-Benz 230-280 SL (Details apply to the 1963 230SL, in the text the refer to 30 years old so it must have been published in 1993). Anyone else likes a copy of the four (4) pages drop me a line.

Funny, I started to translate the Dutch into English and German for the 280SL then gave up since Google is not the right tool for it LOL the end result made absolutely no sense and it made me laugh.

Hello Rolf-Dieter I will place a brochure of the 280SL in German and English later on.
You can Always send me the scans if you like, I didn't know of that brochure so it's always interesting for me.
Thanks.

Greetings Ger.

Hello Ger,

PM me your e-mail address I like to e-mail you one scan at a time (they are 0.75MB to 2MB and are too large to e-mail together). I don't like to optimize the images since this would reduce the quality.

gerster · « **Reply #11 on:** March 09, 2014, 11:12:04 »

The 280SL brochure from 1970 is also in English there.

I purchased an MB literature pack from 1970 on eBay this week that included this interesting note. Anyone here seen one like this before?

gerster · « **Reply #13 on:** March 11, 2014, 18:32:08 »

The English 230SL brochure from 8-1963 is also online now.

Website is still expanding for the MB enthusiast.

gerster · « **Reply #17 on:** June 17, 2014, 07:53:52 »

Last Friday 260 visits on my site, new record!

I love the phrase in the 1970 280 SL brochure:

"Lasting Value"

Amen to that...

gerster · « **Reply #19 on:** August 22, 2014, 10:32:16 »

There are now 310 brochures placed and there will come alot more.

What a collection -really fabulous stuff. Many thank for sharing.

Gerster,
I think that your fantastic website should be referenced either in our Tech Manual or in a place of this forum that allows exposing it as it deserves. Threads and posts, after some time, get submerged by others of different values. Yours, in my view merits a place of first choice...
Don't stop in your efforts to expand this beautiful collection....
