MOTOR CAR 1946-56 : THE ( Sedgewick 1979)

 1979. 262 pages.

In-depth study of the motor car as it emerged from the austerity of war and grew from a luxury item for the better-off (outside the USA at any rate) to an essential everyday tool in the developed world. Sedgewick highlights the influence of wartime technological advances and increasingly flamboyant US-inspired styling in the first decade of peace.
