This is a set of four programs from the Internationally renowned Meadow Brook Hall Concours d'Elegance, held every year at Meadow Brook Hall, Rochester, Michigan, on the grounds of Meadow Brook Hall, one of the largest private residences ever built in the US. It was the former home of Matilda Dodge Wilson, widow of an auto baron. The pages are clean and tight; printed on glossy paper. The four are: August 6, 1995, with a 'special advertising section' from a periodical, tipped in; August 4, 1996; August 1, 1999; and August 6, 2000. To see these spectacular cars, in all of their glory, on the property of this fabulous estate, is a definite highlight of the year. Each program is filled with mostly color photos. I looked through these programs and see at least 20, or more, cars I'd love to bring home with me--the roadsters get me every time! While the programs show very nominal edge wear, they appear to have been very lightly handled, and then put away immediately.
