Description
 
This book shows models newly rolled out of the factory, with polished wood interiors and richly painted exteriors highlighted by gilt lettering, striping and brass fittings. It is easy to see why they were the pride of cities ranging from Bombay and Cape Town to Sioux City and Boston. Included in this selection are open cars, gondolas, experimental battery-powered cars, open grip cable cars, double deckers and such interesting and famous models as the Woollongabba from Brisbane, Australia; the Pride of the Nation, the largest omnibus ever constructed; several cars from New York's heavily traveled Broadway line; and an elegant car custom-made for Emperor Dom Pedro of Brazil in 1878.
Softcover; Author: John H. White, Jr.
