1953 50th Anniversary Portfolio of Lithographs

9" x 12-3/4" 1953 portfolio that contains four beautifully detailed color lithographs (8" x 12") of the following Buick Models: 1903 Model A, 1907 Model S, 1911 Model 21 and 1914 Model B37; however, there was a 1953 double marketing error in that the "1903 Model A" that is depicted is actually the 1904 Model B test car, and it most certainly is not a four cylinder engine. The portfolio was produced in 1953 by Buick in honor of Buick’s 50th Anniversary.  Buick dealers gave these to their customers.  The BHA is grateful to acccomplished GM and Buick historian and author, Kevin M. Kirbitz, for identifying the marketing error in the 1953 portfolio.
