Vol. III, No. 3 - December 1904 Specs: 10" x 14" with 80 pages
Condition: The two tiny punch holes near the top edge as shown below extend through the first 41 pages. The front and back covers are no longer attached to the staples but are firmly attached to each other the full length of the spine. The "centerfold" page is also detached from the staples, but the rest of the pages are firmly attached. Pages have very minor soiling at the outermost extreme of the bottom corners - hardly even worth mention. Wear on covers is at a minimum as shown, which is fairly remarkable as these very early, oversize magazines are notorious for ragged condition. An absolute joy to handle and read since it has been handled little if any, as evidenced by the lack of edge tears. Very good, well preserved throughout and likely the only copy in existence in this (or any) condition.
Content: Highlights include English Women Who Motor, A Motor Pilgrimage to Mount Vernon (great pictures), Two Hill-Climbs in France, In The Big Tree Country (Mariposa and Madera counties, California), The Motor's Legacy of Ills, Through Japan in a Motor Car, The Arrival of the Airship, To the Delaware Water Gap, The Race is the Thing (2 pages with great racing pictures), The Gossip of the Road, The 1905 American Shows and much more.
Advertising: Full page ads include Ford, Panhard & Levassor, Worthington, Packard, Locomobile, Peerless, White and Winton (back cover) among others.
