Classic motor cartoon book

Stoneham, John2020
Books
Classic motorcars have been featured in movies and pop songs for over seven decades and contributed to the fun of driving historic cars. This book of motor cartoons illustrates the adventure and romance of classic and vintage cars which also have been part of automobile racing history - from Louis Renault, Henry Ford and Enzo Ferrari to Kiichiro Toyoda today. From 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang', 'Grandma Duck', 'Noddy and Big Ears' to 'Bonnie and Clyde', 'Thelma & Louise' and 'The Italian Job', comedy and tragedy have always been a big part of entertaining motoring history. These cartoons are accompanied by anecdotes of motoring trivia complementing the extraordinary history of the automobile as we remember it before 'self-drive' electric cars will silently kill off the 'internal combustion engine'.
