Mirror mirror on the wall, why am I backwards...?

true mirror: non-reversing mirrors

Introducing The TRUE MIRROR!
From prehistoric times, people have only seen themselves reflected backwards. As it turns out, the backward images we see and interact with everyday are profoundly different from what is real. No wonder we are so often off in our self-evaluations compared with how others see us!

The Microcar Museum

Museum Information

From the site:
The microcar, a vehicle born out of need, was a child of its time and became the symbol of a people's spirit.
...
It's said that the true master reveals himself within limitations and so this focusing of energy and talent resulted in an enormous variety of small vehicles; some successful, others less so - but all of them interesting!
...

The pictures are deceptive, it looks like they are matchbox cars on display but these are all real. Checkout the virtual tour and the motorweek video!
