Electric vehicles
Electric vehicles is a 1911 catalogue-style book published in Chicago by the Electricity Magazine Corp., presenting electric automobiles to a motoring and trade readership. The pictures show closed electric coupés and town cars photographed outdoors on roads and in snow, with one hand-coloured plate in red and cream. A designer could take from them the boxy, upright early automobile silhouette, spoked wire wheels, and glassed-in passenger cabins of the 1910s.
