This beautiful book by James M. Flammang and the Auto Editors of Consumer Guide would make a great coffee table book. It is 416 pages of full-color pictures of all of the classic cars of the 50's. 9-1/2" x 12" x 1" thick. Weighs over 4-1/2 lbs. ISBN 0-7853-4375-X
The jacket is foil so shows some scuff marks, but the actual book is like new. The inside pages are pristine. Be sure to enlarge the photos to see detail.
