Detroit: the Guild, 1937. Paperback. Enormous oblong pamphlet-style paperback, 12x19 inches, stapled at left and folded vertically in half, as issued, ergo item in hand measures 12x9.5 inches. Opens out to 24p (so numbered) of the giant leaves displaying "plans and instructions" in profusion, plus a full-size full-color side/front/rear view of the ideally-realized vehicle. Scoring of the competition (win an education, win money and travel) involves separate scores for metalwork, woodwork, trimcraft, paintcraft, castings, and (most importantly) fidelity to scale. A bit worn with toning around the margins, but certainly a good copy.
