This collection is a valuable historical testimony, consisting of photocopies of articles published in the most important industry magazines in English. The articles include road tests, comparisons, and often in-depth technical descriptions. Although it represents significant documentation on the history of motoring, it is not known for its high typographical quality, as it consists of simple photocopies or facsimile reproductions.
