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.

rif. 4880n.p. Mounted Photograph. Fine. A circa late 1880s 8x10 mounted collodion photograph of the interior of a Pullman "Palace" car. The luxurious fittings and decor suggest that the photographed car belonged to either a Gilded Age Robber Baron in the U.S. or European royalty such as the Romanov's who had similar cars for their Imperial train built by Pullman. We find no comparable images online of this French influenced Rococo-style decor used in other Pullman Palace cars. As this photo is uncredited we date it circa late 1880s from a book visible one on of the library shelves "The Makers of Venice : Doges Conquerors Painters and Men of Letters" by Mrs. Oliphant Macmillan in 1887 and assume that the owner may have hired their own private photographer. Also Pullman had hired Wylie Dennison as their full-time photographer in 1888 and he was known to name number and sign his negatives "WD". The image is perhaps somewhat overexposed near the windows - an effect of the strong natural light pouring in - but it still retains all of it's sharpness and rich chocolate tones. A peek through 19th century curtains into a beautifully liveried train carriage showing a lifestyle enjoyed and known to but a few. Ask about our other available Pullman Palace Car photos. unknown
