---The AMERICAN AUTOMOBILE History---
--------------GOLDEN YEARS!!!--------------
---------TIMELINE 1949 - 1970---------
--Brought to You by ROMANO-ARCHIVES--

The hugest Italian private digital archive related to the American Automobile History, more than 60000 images and over 2000 multimedial files (videos, digitalized film footage, audio recordings, QTVRs and PDF documents) regarding the American Automobile 1899-1970 TIMELINE, is now available for researchers, historians, teachers, students and enthusiasts, in two separated Collections.
One of the purposes of our effort is to offer a new approach to the contemporary U.S. History (from an automobile-centric point of view...) to the international public.

The Project embeds various cultural specifications.
The researcher will find, besides images and videos regarding almost every model produced during every single year by all the American Automobile Makes (even the smaller ones...), a complete Collection of images regarding the Automobile in the Advertising. It will be possible to watch and print this precious and complete iconography: thousands of Ads from original vintage magazines, automobile related brochures, manuals, posters, most of them acquired in high resolution.
After many years of research we can also offer an impressive number of vintage Screen and TV commercials, like no other private archive in Europe.
But, most of all, we offer a simultaneous trip with the small everyday stories of the Americans at the wheel, and with the big historical events that changed the States (and the World) during the first 70 years of the last Century, with thousands of epoca images and movies related to every single historical moment. From the Automobile getting into the landscape for the first time to the early 'no rules' races on the beaches near Daytona; from the introduction of the Ford Model T to the 1917 involvement in WW l; from Prohibitionism to the Wall Street Crisis; and so on, reviving the New Deal, the 1939 Futurama, the industrial conversion of WW II and the post-war reconversion, the early 50ies' cars in the b-movies with the flying soucers, the Rock and Roll era, the futuristic concept cars, Korea, Vietnam, the Psychedelic 60ies...

For us at ROMANO-ARCHIVES, in the end, the Project has achieved its goal: giving to the researcher a way to use the Automobile like a key-code, in order to focalize the Spirit of America during the XXth Century.

Here we present a selection from the part of our Multimedia Collection covering the years from 1949 to 1970.
