Images of this quality — like this 1951 Lincoln can be found in our Library in both the Print Advertising and Automotive Brochures Sections.

The Society’s website has been designed to be a “Library”. It is an Internet storehouse of both:

  • High-resolution PDF images of paper documents, artwork, manufacturer published materials and
  • Informative articles and technical materials collated and written by the Society’s staff or contributors.

All materials are available and downloadable to:

  • Assist, educate, enlighten, and inform the visitor about automotive history.
  • Act as a reference tool (much of our material is primary source) for enthusiasts, educators, students, writers, and researchers.
  • Make available content and accurate information for publishers.

The design and format of the Library:

  • Allows visitors to “walk” through the Library and
  • Pick the content they want to view or download — without assistance.
  • A powerful search engine allows visitors to quickly find distinct items to view.
  • Staff is available during normal US business hours to help visitors, if requested.
  • Content is downloadable and FREE 24/7/365.
