Is this all what's left of Peter & Moritz? (upd. a half P&M !)


Of certain makes of car only a few examples are left. Also there are marques of which only one specimen is left. Also there are automobiles known of which only a chassis or engine survived. With the most charming make Peter und Moritz (clearly inspired by the stripheroes Max & Moritz created by Wilhelm Busch) it is even worse. As far as known to Stefan Feller this radiator badge is the only tangible what' s left of the German cyclecar manufacturer of Naumberg that existed from 1921-1925. First with aircooled cars and later with watercooling. Not even sure to which type this badge was fitted. We are most eager to learn if any Peter und Moritz car (or any part for what it's worth) has survived. According to Georgano there was a relation with Rover. Can anyone add to cheerful background of the Naumberg car?  (badge from collection Stefan Feller)

Shortly afterr the two Germanys where united I met someone on a oldtimer market in Berlin. He told me he had one half of a Peter & Moritz. I think the front half. But as it is nearly twenty years ago I cant remember the name of the chap nor I can I remember where I put the piece of paper with the adress. So I think there must still some parts of such a car lying somewhere.

The Rover 8 was made under licence in Germany, with a slightly larger engine, by Peter-und-Moritz between 1921 and 1923
