Many years ago I was given a fascinating book called The Schlumpf Obsession Inside a Legendary Treasure House , showing what greed and the unacceptable face of capitalism can do.
This year whilst driving to Croatia for a holiday I was able to fulfil a dream and visit the museum in Mulhouse France.
In many ways it is sad as these cars should be on the road and the collection put together by the two brothers Hans and Franz Schlumpf had more in my opinion, to do with showing their wealth than for any love of cars.
However, there is no denying that the collection is incredible.
Apologies for the photos of some of the collection they were taken on a phone and in many cases due to the screen brightness I was unable to actually see what I was taking.
