no date, circa 1939. Roughly 3 by 6 inch booklet unfolding into 6 panels. Black and white photos of a Crosley car included, as well as a blue colorized one on the front. A brochure issued presumably for the 1939 World's Fair, touting the as of yet produced Crosley car. Production for consumers would start in 1939. Crosley, known for its manufacturing of radios and car accessories, began this venture to offer sub-compact cars to US consumers. Cars and other vehicles were produced from 1939 to 1952, with production suspended during World War II. Crosley included many innovations on its vehicles that were well ahead of the larger auto manufacturers. While initially popular, especially during gas rationing, sales declined by 1952 because of competition from larger auto makers. Brochure includes descriptions of the vehicles, specifications, etc. VERY GOOD condition. Minor toning and edgewear.
