Transportation Progress follows the story of self-propelled vehicles from the earliest times down to the modern motor car, written by Arthur Pound. It was reprinted from his history of General Motors, The Turning Wheel, which covers the company's first twenty-five years, 1908 to 1933. That parent book first appeared in 1934, and this slim blue booklet is the kind of corporate history piece that car-history fans, GM collectors and automobilia shelves love. Its cover shows a line-drawn penny-farthing bicycle and a streamlined sedan beside a round medallion, so it makes a fun display next to vintage car books and brochures.
