About This Design

Custom East German Trabant Car Paper Plate

Custom East German Trabant Car Paper Plate

A computer-generated, black and gold, image of a customised East German Trabant automobile. The customised car's nickname, Trabasaurus rex, in an appropriate font, appears both on the vehicle door and below the image. The vehicle bears an Idaho license plate reading "TRABI REX" as it was customised by mythical Warsaw Pact Wonder Wheels (Classic Commie Cars) in Sandpoint, ID. The Warsaw Pact Wonder Wheels logo also appears. The Trabant was the people's car of East Germany "Trabant" means travelling companion and was inspired by the Russian word "sputnik" with the same meaning. Over 3 million Trabants were produced in the span of 30 years. The Trabant's engine was underpowered, inefficient and created much pollution. The much maligned Trabant, or Trabi as it was commonly known, has long been the butt of jokes, but has become trendy in recent years. Some have been imported to the United States. The roof, trunk lid,hood,fenders, and doors were constructed with Duroplast, a hard plastic akin to Bakelite, made of recycled materials: cotton waste from the Soviet Union and phenol resins from the East German dye industry. This made the Trabant the first car with a body made of recycled material and was partially responsible for the misconception that it was made of cardboard. Various crash test results showed it performed better than comparable contemporary Western hatchbacks.

I was very impressed the plates were Beautifully done and got exactly what i ordered. The family had a pre Christmas get together, where the children come to decorate the tree. Once done the food platters come out and so did the plates. they were an absolute hit with the family so much so that nobody wanted to eat off them🥰 they made for a good conversational piece around the table. I will certainly be purchasing more from Zazzle. Thankyou. Awesome printing. You did not disappoint. 👏
