Cardboard cars closer to home 1970

Closer to home, that is, than the one in picture #25402.

Brabants galore in East Berlin, in front of some prestigious buildings, including the State Opera House (with flags) and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier (with sentries). The East Berlin equivalent of London's Post Office Tower also appears, bottom left. They used to beam strong signals from it to disrupt West German television. (No doubt present-day TV critics wish they could get their hands on a similar device.)

Comments:
Sorry for the glaring misprint above. Should be Trabants of course, not Brabants. (Brabants would probably be Dutch household utensils, not East German cars.)
