A nostalgic celebration of America's golden age of car culture, from the 1950s to the 1970s, is presented in this book. The photographs of John G. Zimmerman capture the optimism and utopianism of a bygone era, when the automobile was synonymous with success in America.
Featuring over 200 photographs, the book showcases the diverse aspects of America's auto industry at its zenith, including iconic cars, behind-the-scenes looks at designers, builders, collectors, and enthusiasts. The John G. Zimmerman Archive's collection is drawn upon, including photographs of Ford, Chrysler, and GM models, as well as ephemera and outtakes from his assignments.
This book celebrates the automobile's central place in American culture during a pivotal period, when timeless silhouettes of classic cars ruled the roads.
