Cord Complete

The fascinating story of the creation and marketing of one of the most recognizable cars ever built in America. This monumental book fully illuminates the Cord's contributions to the worlds of automobile and industrial design.

CORD COMPLETE includes the author's notes on every page, expanding on the text material and offering fresh insights into the lives of the men who created the car and the circumstances of the world around them. Long-lost original charts and graphs have been painstakingly reconstructed and are here presented in print for the first time.

The book is larger than royal quarto size, a full 10 x 14 inches. The oversize horizontal format permits proper display of vintage and new photographs and drawings. High quality paper stock and the best of modern printing processes make photographs seem to leap from the page. The genuine leather binding recalls the style of the elaborate binders provided by Auburn to its Cord dealers seventy-five years ago and has been custom dyed to match an original Cord leather interior.

304 big pages include more than 600 black and white illustrations and 48 pages in stunning full color.

CORD COMPLETE is delivered in a custom slipcase which commemorates the art deco showroom floor of the original Auburn Automobile Company.
