Since the first models have rolled out with assembly lines at the beginning of the 20th century, cars caused very different feelings: for inventors, they were a visual expression of their designs, they mean unlimited potential for builders. And for anyone who had the happiness to have one of them, they mean the realization of dreams and the achievement of undoubted status. This volumetric publication is an amazing photographic catalog of a number of essential and most influential models in the century of automotive history. Machines presented on these pages and today remain unsurpassed design masterpieces.
