From political distrust to artistic masterpieces, the automobile has been a symbol of change and cultural significance throughout history. In 1960, an anti-Nixon poster questioned whether one would buy a used car from the Republican presidential candidate. Meanwhile, Diego Rivera's mural at The Detroit Institute of Arts in 1932-1933 showcased the power and influence of the automobile industry. The Monaco Grand Prix Poster from 1957 captured the thrill and elegance of racing, while the iconic 1964 Mini Cooper S represented British innovation on wheels. Laurel and Hardy found themselves in comedic situations with police officers in their silent film 'Leave Them Laughing' from 1928. In contrast to these vibrant moments, a rusting 1931 Ford pickup truck sat quietly under an oak tree, reminding us of forgotten times gone by. The powerful image of Buddhist monk Thich Quang Duc committing self-immolation in protest against President Ngo Dinh Diem's treatment of protestors shook South Vietnam in 1963. The sleek design of the 1966 Ford Anglia took us back to an era when cars were more than just transportation; they were works of art. From Hollywood Hills to The Hollywood sign perched atop a tree, automobiles have played a role in shaping our perception of glamour and fame. Stepping into Harlem's Cotton Club during the bustling New York City scene of the 1930s was like entering another world altogether - where jazz filled every corner as patrons arrived stylishly in their vehicles such as the elegant Morris Minor from 1957 or perhaps even a luxurious Jaguar E type from 1968. Through triumphs and tribulations, celebrations and protests, automobiles have woven themselves into our lives as both practical tools and symbols that reflect our society's ever-changing landscape.
