context_page_description: Rumpler-Luftfahrzeugbau GmbH, Rumpler-Werke, usually known simply as Rumpler was a German aircraft and automobile manufacturer founded in Berlin by Austrian engineer Edmund Rumpler in 1909 as Rumpler Luftfahrzeugbau. The firm originally manufactured copies of the Etrich Taube monoplane under the Rumpler Taube trademark, but turned to building reconnaissance biplanes of its own design through the course of the First World War, in addition to a smaller number of fighters and bombers.
  The company, since its beginning a limited liability concern, became a Aktiengesellschaft in the style of Rumpler-Werke AGon 21 September 1917 with a capitalization of 3,5 Mio. Marks. In 1918, 3300 people worked for Rumpler at the Berlin headquarter and a subsidiary in Augsburg, the Bayerische Rumpler-Werke AG.
  As a consequence of the Treaty of Versailles Germany was not allowed to manufacture aircraft. Rumpler tried to secure a place in the post-war automobile market, and developed in its Augsburg premises a very advanced car with the first effective aerodynamic styling, the Rumpler Tropfenwagen. It was shown at the 1921 Internationale Automobil Ausstellung which then took place in Berlin.
