[4] However, he struggled to make ends meet and took various other jobs to supplement his income, including docker, night watchman, photographic retoucher, and stage designer.
A keen motorsports enthusiast and amateur racer, Zoltán covered Germany's biggest races at the Nürburgring and Avus circuits.
[2] In 1930 Zoltán established Reclaphot, a photographic agency that specialised in advertising work, and Autophot, a company dedicated exclusively to automobile photography.
However, as an enemy alien at the outbreak of World War II, he was not permitted to pursue his profession as a photographer and faced the threat of internment.
[8] One of Zoltán's clients was Odhams Press, which published Lilliput, a celebrated pocket-sized gentleman's magazine that featured an assortment of titillating articles and risqué humour, together with adventurous photographic essays by such well-known talents as Bill Brandt and Brassai.
