Rose Festival float a 1920-22 Fageol motor coach with floral decoration spelling out “Travel by Motor Stage†for the 1923 advertising Campaign. The image shows elaborate floral decoration well-dressed festival “Princesses†and winged Mercury and staff above “Speed†spelled out.
Portland OR: n.p. 1923. One large silver gelatin photograph sized 14 x 23.5 in. w/o photographer’s imprint or markings on thick matte finish photo paper very very slight closed tear at lower fore-edge neatly repaired in original glass & frame now w/ archival foam core backing. This wonderful image graced the offices of the Oregon Auto Stage Terminal Co. in downtown Portland out of the Union State Depot. Following World War I over 135 motor buses and automobiles operated over 16 different routes within a 125-mile radius of Oregon. Before the Oregon Auto Stage Terminal was built countless unlicensed and registered companies stationed themselves at corners hotels and spots throughout the city resulting in many complaints from both tourists and residents. The OAST Co. established a well organized system that allowed more than 10000 passengers to be carried every year and these Fageol buses along with White Co. coaches were especially popular on the windy and picturesque route along the Columbia River Highway. We could find no similar surviving promotional company photo for the Company. See: Earl Brownlee Various Makes of Busses are Used with Marked Success. . .

An historically important survivor dealership sales brochure and album for the short-lived Victor W. Page Motors Corp. developed and built with the patented innovations of Victor W. Page 1885-1947 a pioneering automotive and aeronautical specialist and inventor. Following World War I Page left his position as the chief Aeronautical Engineering Officer in France to found the Victor W. Page Motors Corp. intended to produce over 300000 automobiles a year including the Aero-Type Four featuring his patented air-cooled motor suspension system chassis and cutaway seats. By January 1922 he was able to exhibit at the New York Auto Show with original photographs included in this dealership album of two couple sedans two convertible speedsters a display chassis and a body for the Aero-Type Four. The automobiles targeted the $ 1250- $ 1750 price range and featured steel dixc wheels contoured shell hood and fenders built with liberal amounts of aluminum.The first 15 automobiles were built in a Liberty Engine Factory including the ground-breaking 30 horsepower 4-cylinder engine featured his patented tilted steering wheel system and disc brakes. The body and chassis were built in Farmingdale MA and the engines were assembled in New York for an eventual production of just 15 cars and none survived after the liquidation auction in 1927. Page had prior experience with automobiles and had actually built 25 total cars with his earlier company the Page Motor Vehicle Co. of Providence RI which closed at the entry of the U.S. into World War I. Page in his second company as shown here intended a huge stock offering but unfortunately trusted the less than scrupulous grifter Charles Beadon to sell the stock whose salesmen ended up embezzling all dividends and profits. Some of the eary investors traveled to the Stamford CT plant to get their money back and Beadon sued him. After years of litigation the company was dissolved and all properties equipment and assets sold off. Unfortunately none of the Victor W. Page automobiles survive and this cataloguer could find no similar surviving piece of sales literature or photographs as this item. Lazarnick 1879-1955 was a pioneering automotive photographer whose images captured the development of motor vehicles form the early 1900’s to the late 1920’s and covered many of the Vanderbilt Cup Races photographed the presidential campaigns of Taft McKinley & Roosevelt as well as capturing such notables as Steinmetz Edison Oldfield and Rickenbacker.

[TRI-STATE COACHES, UNION BUS TERMINAL]
GREENVILLE: QUEEN CITY OF THE DELTA
Greenville: Tri-State Coaches 1940. 1940. MISSISSIPPI DELTA BUS TRANSPORTATION. 8 1/2" x 7" in saddle-stapled printed wrappers. 10 pp. including wrappers. Illustrated. Route maps. Rare booklet from Tri-State Coaches promoting Greenville Mississippi as a transportation hub for their bus service in 1940. This piece is printed from entirely hand-drawn copy giving it a naive and charming feel from the ice-encrusted lettering of "AIR CONDITIONED coaches" to cursive treatment of certain key words to the drawing of one of the buses on the back cover. Centerfold map printed in red and black. It's intriguing to imagine who was riding these routes around and out of the Mississippi Delta in 1940--blues musicians Negro league baseball players African Americans headed north in the Great Migration etc. An amazing survivor and tangible bit of history. Some minor extremity rubs minor soil and a horizontal crease across midsection from booklet being folded long ago. A bit of rust around staples otherwise clean and sound. Tri-State Coaches, [1940]. unknown

[TRUCKS -- COACH BUILDING].
Real photo advertising post card for the Dearborn Truck Co. with photo of 14 different manufactured trucks and advertising promotion on verso.
Chicago IL: Dearborn Truck Co. Manufacturers 1250-1264 So. Campbell Ave. ca. 1917. One photo postcard 3.5 x 5.5 in. Photo image on front printed text on verso very minor edgewear to card slight creasing still a VG piece. A splendid example of Real Photo Post Card advertising during World War I providing an excellent visual reference for truck building in Chicago at the time. Dearborn Truck Company advertised themselves as a company that could build one- or two-ton truck unites from any make of car emphasizing Fords Packard Buick and Dodge frames. These inexpensive chain-driven trucks offered an excellent inexpensive truck at half the cost of a new truck and they provided a one year guarantee. They pointed out that during their production process they designed the truck to carry 90 percent of the load on the rear axle with its heavy truck wheels so there was actually less weight on the Ford front axle after conversion then on the front axle of a Ford touring car. Trucks could be purchased for $ 350 up to $ 500 with a used car. In 1918 they moved to 2515-25 West 35th St. a plant that was four times the size due to their rapid market expansion. See Dun’s Review Vol. 28 April 1917 p. 67; The Motor Truck Vol. 9 May 1918 p. 205. Dearborn Truck Co., Manufacturers, 1250-1264 So. Campbell, Ave., unknown

A Coach Painter of Thirty Years' Experience
The Coach Painter's Hand-Book and Guide
London: Henry J. Drane 1895. Hardcover. Good. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. 131 pages plus six pages of ads for varnish suppliers. The Coach Painter's Hand-Book offers no publishing date which I have taken from Internet Archive. The boards are badly stained; the front end paper is missing exposing the front hinge though the binding remains very good.There is intermittent dust staining throughout the book though obvious it is not horrific and finally the back end paper and paste down suffer from very mild water staining at the edges. Aesthetically the book is not pretty but it is still very serviceable. <br/> <br/> Henry J. Drane hardcover
