Peter Schepens, the owner of a very nice zelensis, found me these type three related pictures. they show a type three in brussels with illuminated tires from GOODYEAR. (i hope they don’t explode). this high-tec from around 1961 sported clear rubber and lightbulbs screwed to the actual steel wheel…
they were in the dutch version “goede reis” of the french magazine “bonne route”
