    Between 1906 and 1918 horseless carriages have given way to real cars, affordable cars, like the Model T Ford. You and I suddenly have a reliable alternative to the foot, the horse, and the train. We have become independent! The Motorcar has revolutionized just about everything since ordinary folks became mobile, and have they ever taken advantage of it! The farm has suddenly gotten closer to town and faraway vacation places such as Yosemite National Park have become more accessible. This exhibit looks at the early automobile as a provider of newly-found mobility through mechanical improvements (the electric self-starter) and mass-production techniques (providing affordability).
