Ampelmann - From Traffic Signal to Cultural Icon

This book describes the journey of East German Ampelmann from traffic lights to cult figures. Their fascinating story is closely tied to the partition of Germany, the fall of the Berlin Wall and the process of the reunification. These dramatic events have made the past decades an exciting time for the little green and red men and their hometown, Berlin. With an original text by Karl Peglau, creator of the Ampelmann.
