I beg the difference: I still have toys for instance labelled West Germany. Also kitchenware and washing machines were labelled west. However, this bike was surely made during the nationalistic era when german language was "the law" why the sign Germany indicates some kind of export, or the World fair perhaps? Chicago some time in the 30`s?

East German products...hm, sounds nasty
