Hans Stuck (1900-1978)-caricature

Hans Stuck became a professional racing driver in 1927 for Austro-Daimler. He excelled in hill climbs and from 1934 on he drove successfully for Auto Union. He continued racing after World War 2 and became German hillclimb champion in 1960 in a BMW 700 RS.

These caricatures were drawn by Frederick Gordon Crosby in 1935. The racing drivers shown were well-known to the British racing enthusiasts of that era, particularly due to their performances at the Brooklands track and major events on the continent.
