Fifties Flashback: The American Car

Lovely book I bought as a gift for my husband. But when I took it out of the box I found the front cover was torn. Very disappointing as it is a gift. Otherwise a nice prompt service.

Superb photos and written content about me favourite cars

Fantastic reading for American cars enthusiastics... I really loved to read and full with great pictures!!! I can recommend to anyone it is good deal!!!

A fine historical record

This is a great book full of great photos. It captures the 1950's American motor industy well in both pictures and content. Nice reference book and good value.

This was a present for my husband that loves anything with a motor in it and especially classic cars. There are some nice car pics with a little bit of back ground. Nice coffee table book. A good addition to car buff's library.

Can't believe the low price on this book. Hardcover & glossy pages. The plan is to leave it in Cuba where we hear that so many of these cars are still running!

These photos are just unbelievable! What a great book. A piece of art.

Very nice!!!It has many photos, hard cover, clean nice pictures, and it has lots of information. We bought it for my husband's father for Christmas, whom grew up in the 50's and it the biggest American Classic Car collector I know and he loved it.I am always very hesitant about the books we buy for him because he is very particular with what he wants, we always get his books at Barnes & Noble because we can skim them book before buying it, but this was last minute. Sooo worth it!

I ordered this for my husband's birthday and he will love it. The photos are really great and it has information.

This was a gift. They loved it and said the quality was amazing.

Boyfriend loved it and so did I! The pics are some of the most mesmerizing I have ever seen.

Such a Beautiful Book of Fabulous Times and Cars!

Title brings expectations of American Cars only, but book contains a whole lot of foreign cars as well. Could have done a lot better job covering the American Cars they did include.

Some of the most beautiful pictures of 50’s cars.

Quick delivery.... nice book

great book and price

A bright, glitzy photo-op showcasing some of the best of the 1950s DETROIT IRON. I have always considered the 1950s to have been the epitome of American auto style. It does not surprise me that Detroit collapsed, and that American cars do not sell as well as many foreign ones. What can you expect when every car basically looks alike ... the cooker-cutter look. Back then, each marque had its own personality, its own distinctive look ... I could identify each model from a mile away ... now I don't even care; they all look alike. Books like this one help me to recapture some of the thrill of looking at, and into, those gorgeous Detroit Dinosaurs.

Great condition. Great pictures. Shipped on time. One book criticism--the picture layout does not correspond with the text very well.

I gave this book to my boyfriend for Christmas and he loved it. We enjoy looking at old cars together and the photos in this book are wonderful. It is a great gift book and a great coffee table book. Very nicely done. we looked at every page on Christmas night, but I have not read the text.yet.
