Geschichte
BMW Isetta bei der Telegrammzustellung Bayerische Motorenwerke AG, München, 1956 | Flickr – Fotosharing!
Sie boten Wetterschutz, waren klein und wendig: die Motorcoupés, die in den 1950er Jahren die Straßen befuhren. In Berlin, München und Hannover erprobte die Post die Isetta für die Leerung von Briefkästen und die Eilzustellung. Für Stauraum sorgten eine Ladefläche im Heck und ein nach oben gewölbtes Rückfenster. Aber mit dem mühevollen Einstieg von vorn und der geringen Höhe erwiesen sich diese Fahrzeuge auf Dauer als ungeeignet für den Postbetrieb. Die Isetta wird ab 9. November 2010 in der neuen Dauerausstellung im Museum für Kommunikation Nürnberg gezeigt. Foto: Museumsstiftung Post und Telekommunikation

Illuminated Manuscript, Bible (part), St. Jerome in his study, Walters Manuscript W.805, fol. 1r
This large-scale manuscript contains the first eight Old Testament books, Genesis through Ruth. The date of completion is given, February 2, 1507. The illumination of the Creation within a cosmographic scheme is based in part on the woodcut illustrations of Creation in the 1483 Koberger Bible, and the 1493 Nuremberg Chronicle by the same printer. Large historiated initials mark the beginning of each book. This large format form of the bible was revived in the low countries and Rhineland in the mid fifteenth century, and later in the century they were being made in south east Germany and Bohemia. The style of the miniatures in this manuscript is typical of upper Austrian miniature painting of the later fifteenth century.
