The following pages list the collection of old car owner’s manuals kept in the
Business, Science, and Technology Department. While the manuals cover the
years 1913-1986, the bulk of the collection represents cars from the 1920s, ‘30s,
and 40s. If you are interested in looking at these manuals, please ask a librarian
in the Department or e-mail us. The manuals are noncirculating, but we can
make copies of specific parts for you.
