1951réf. 5438London United Kingdom: Iliffe & Sons Ltd. 19511956. hardcover. Very Good. N/A. The Autocar Road Tests 1951–1956 Bound Volume Technical Staff of The Autocar — First Editions Custom Bound Collection Publication: London Iliffe & Sons Ltd. 1951–1956 Formatting: 4to variously paginated. Condition Report: Very Good. A substantial custom-bound volume presented in green cloth boards. The binding remains firm square and tight displaying minor rubbing to the extremities and some gentle sunning to the boards and spine though the gilt lettering remains distinctly legible. The text block edges are lightly dust-soiled with typical age-toning commensurate with mid-century paper stock. Internally the pages are generally bright and clean with occasional scattered foxing and spotting primarily restricted to the preliminary leaves and extreme margins which in no way affects the readability of the text or the clarity of the illustrations. A handsome robust compilation. Catalogue Note: This unique volume presents a bespoke custom-bound collection of six consecutive years of The Autocar Road Tests compiling the annual paperback publications into a single comprehensive hardback. Originally issued in fragile softcover wraps these motoring annuals are highly susceptible to wear and loss; finding a consecutive six-year run preserved together in a sturdy cloth binding is a significant rarity on the open market. The compilation contains 185 individual road tests in total extensively detailing the performance of British American and Continental automobiles of the early to mid-1950s. Bound without the original softcover wraps the text block proceeds seamlessly through the title and contents pages of each respective year. Such bespoke bindings were typically commissioned by automotive enthusiasts motoring clubs or libraries to preserve these vital reference works for long-term use. A remarkable treasure trove of mid-century motoring history this bound volume compiles six years of The Autocar Road Tests 1951–1956 offering an unparalleled window into the automotive landscape of the era. Featuring exhaustive technical reports and performance evaluations by the Technical Staff of The Autocar this collection covers an astonishing 185 vehicles—from everyday Austin and Ford saloons to glamorous icons like the Aston Martin DB2 Ferrari 212 and Jaguar XK120. Richly illustrated with contemporary photographs speed charts and technical diagrams it serves as an indispensable reference for classic car enthusiasts restorers and historians eager to experience the golden age of motoring exactly as it was reviewed at the time.
