Horse-Drawn Vehicles Colored
Plates From The Hub
November 1882 - January 1892

Compiled by Susan Green, Carriage Museum of America

 

This book is part of a five-year mission to make sure the trade journal The Hub is preserved and made available again to be studied. The Library of Congress finished the microfilming in black and white of this trade journal in 1998. The Carriage Museum of America is offering the collection of 150 colored plates originally published in The Hub for the first time in a complete collection.

 

This collection of scaled colored plates includes all classes of vehicles from sleighs, victories, broughams, surreys and runabouts to business wagons for draft horses. A text page is included with each plate with dimensions, noteworthy details on construction and commentary of style and fashion. This book is printed on 100 lb. archival-quality paper with acid free binding. It will be a classical text to be passed down from generation to generation.
