Originally published in 1912 it is the catalogue of 40 Motor Cars & various Accessories & Components, thought to be 'quaint' & of amusing interest to the modern motorist of 1912. Gathered together & displayed in Oxford Street initially and later moved to the Crystal Palace in 1914. When the war came and the space was required for more important purposes   exhibits were returned to those owners who wanted them but the rest were dumped on waste land near Charing Cross & left to the ravages of weather & scrap-men!. Each Car exhibit is illustrated & described fully in this charming little time warp from yesteryear! The book is in near new condition in its equally nice  jacket
