Mystery aero car. (update; DKW-Kaiser?)

• 

Terry Boyce did send us this fine postcard scene, shot at unknown location. Yet as the postcard was made with Italian Ferrania paper Since 1923) it could well be the case it is in Italy. The aero car is located on a bridge or at least at a plane that is considerably higher than the street or quay in the background. It may help to ID the exact spot. Regarding the propellorised contraption, it is obvious that it is not meant to fly but to look like an aeroplane. The tail colors seem to be repeated on the wheels.  Any thoughts as to the purpose for which was it built? It appears to have a steering wheel, small lamps on the cowl, and there is a probable taillight visible at the rear. Also, a brake linkage(?) can be seen at the rear wheel. The attractive young woman - warmly dressed for the occasion - seems proud of her transportation...but what is it?
