New York, New York: Automobile Club of Southern California, 1925. First Edition. Original Wraps. Very good. A single original issue with original advertisements--color full page cover ads for Hoo Dye / Houdaille-Pacific; Standard Oil Red Crown Gasoline, and Baldwin Shock Absorbers. Quarto,11 1/2" tall, wire saddle stitch, 54 pages (black and white interior) + 8 page 'Rotagravure' section printed in green + stiff color cover. A very good, original magazine overall with moderate edge wear, but slight soiling to the cover margins, and a subscriber's label on the back cover, wire saddle-stitches rusting and spine slightly roughed and a few scattered edge tears. The original newsprint paper used for the photogravure section has high acid content and is more yellowed. A terrific portrait of the time with ads and illustration and relatively scarce.
