"In the last year of the Weimar Republic, the traffic society of Stuttgart printed a poster by Fritz Uhlich which was supposed to present the town to travellers as a city of new buildings and thus to consolidate its reputation as Southern Germany's most modern metropolis. Historical Stuttgart is set against the shadows of the past, with the new trend-setting sights looming above: the Schocken Department store, the Tagblatt tower and the railway station tower."
