Puck began in 1871 as a German language cartoon, caricature, and political satire magazine. It ended its run in 1918. The artwork is remarkable and a statement of American attitudes concerning the automobile during the first full decade of its diffusion. The illustrations are simply wonderful.
This blog will expand on themes and topics first mentioned in my book, "The Automobile and American Life." I hope to comment on recent developments in the automobile industry, reviews of my readings on the history of the automobile, drafts of my new work, contributions from friends, descriptions of the museums and car shows I attend and anything else relevant.
