Make, year, coachbuilder and stylist for a point please!
Mercedes 170 W15 - Stromlinien coupe by Ermann & Rossi in 1935
Actually, this car was introduced at the Berlin show in 1933.
Correct so far, it's from 1933... I just need to know who was responsible for the styling. It shouldn't be too hard with all the other information. Locked for you till your next reply.
A bump for Hubert - You are very close to getting the point, but I'll be unlocking and moving this up to the Experts tomorrow!
Okay Experts have it
Friederich Peters?
Not him.
Clue- he went on to design some very well known (to puzzlers) cars for another coachbuilder....
Was it Johannes Beeskow?
It was indeed!
I've given one point to Hubert for finding the car, and one to Maxmotor for completing the answer
a point for the matching outfit?

A front view. Sorry for the not-so-perfect watermark elimination.
Three more pictures:
A design sketch:
That's probably all what's left of this car: the hood ornament.

Funny that I saw this unique emblem recenty together with some photos:
