In this fascinating letter from the Tucker Corporation to shareholders, founder Preston Tucker demands a turnabout investigation into the "real powers behind repeated investigations" of his fledgling auto company. If you haven't seen the movie Tucker starring Jeff Bridges and a supporting cast of amazing automobiles, I'd recommend it. It's just one of many David Vs. Goliath tales through the ages, but definitely worth a look. Circa 1949-1950.

Vintage catalog of automotive seals and bearings, all advertised to help your car run better and improve fuel economy (which in turn, is of course good for the war effort). I rather like the artwork, not to mention his sparkling clean appearance, from his coveralls to his tie!
