SOUTH AUSTRALIAN MOTOR CARS 1881...1942 compiled by George Brooks & Ivan Hoffmann LIMITED EDITION: 1000 COPIES 132 pages. Hard cloth cover. First edition published in Australia by The Vinall Family in December 1987. Contains colour & black & white photographs & illustrations. Size: 22.4 cm x 28 cm. Description: "This book sets out to be nothing more than a scrapbook in which is assembled what is known about the motor cars and commercial vehicles which, even if not wholly made in South Australia, were peculiar to this State. It is almost entirely concerned with the vehicles and does not venture into company histories or, with one or two exceptions, biographies of the builders." In good condition. Please see the photos - they form part of the description. Minor light shelf wear to the covers.There are a couple of very small white marks to the front cover & small rust coloured marks to the front & back covers & the spine. Very minor bumping to the bottom corner of the front cover. The binding is excellent. There is a tiny mark to both of the front endpapers. The pages are yellowing lightly due to age. The pages are clean. No creased, torn or missing pages. This is a used item to be sold 'as is'. I have described it as well as I can. This book will be posted free with tracking number in Australia via Australia Post. Please email me if you have any questions.
