The Palmen Barnfind LXRY album

This is not a photo book, but a limited edition Photo album Acrylic Prestige (Leatherette) of The Palmen Barnfind Collection

It has been all over the news. Not only in The Netherlands, but even on the front page of CNN and in magazines like Top Gear. Gallery Aaldering presents one of the greatest barnfinds ever. The large Barnfind collection contains 230 special and beautiful classics such as Maserati, Lancia, Ferrari, Alfa Romeo, Jaguar, Aston Martin, BMW, Facel Vega and so much more.

I was so lucky to have the opportunity to photograph the cars in the state as they were discovered. I couldn’t believe it when Nico Aaldering contacted me to ask me if I would be interested in photographing this barnfind. He knew my work and knew this was just my thing. Not knowing exactly what to expect I drove to the two locations were the cars were discovered: a church and a huge barn. When I opened the doors, my jaw dropped. Hundreds of beautiful cars, hiding in the dark, under a thick layer of dust and soot from the fire. With goosebumps and a big smile on my face I started photographing these beauties.

I have created a very luxurious leatherette bound Prestige album with my best photos of The Palmen Barnfind Collection. Super high quality, thick pages with a limited edition of only 50. But it doesn't stop there! Just like my last book 'Travel in Time', it is possible to scan photos with the free Daanoe app to bring the photos to life. And when you press the VR button, you will be transported into the barnfind and you will be able to explore the barnfind as if you are really there.

If you are the owner of one of the cars in this book, please send an email to info@daanoe.com and I will make you a special album with your car on the cover of the album.

In the future I will also make a photobook including (part of) The Palmen collection in my own usual 'Daanoe' style (price range about €50). If you would like to stay informed, please sign up for my newsletter, connect on social media or send an email to info@daanoe.com.

The video shows the XL album. The only difference (besides the size), is that in this album the photos will be displayed on both left and right pages. Therefor the book is half the thickness of the XL album.
