Journey back to a bygone era when city streets and country roads were thronged with a rich assortment of horse-powered vehicles: ice wagons, drays, lunch wagons, delivery trucks, fire engines, buggies, carts, log wagons, stage coaches, hearses, and many other such conveyances.You'll find them all in this treasury of over 250 authentic illustrations -- many unavailable elsewhere -- depicting a wide variety of commercial vehicles of long ago. The author, a former member of the curatorial staff of the Smithsonian Institution's Division of Transportation, has carefully selected detailed engravings of the period, many from rare trade periodicals in the collection of the Smithsonian, as well as photographs. Well-researched captions accompany the illustrations, focusing on how the design of each vehicle served its specific purposes and needs, and supplying various dimensions, coloring, and other details. The author has also written an engrossing historical introduction that sharply defines the development of commercial vehicles in an age of headlong expansion and industrial advancement.
Invaluable for anyone interested in antique transportation, this volume is also an ideal source of royalty-free illustrations for use in ads, catalogs, book and magazine illustrations, and elsewhere.

Just so so okay... not too stylish but is functional, priced a bit high for basic backpack
Color: Black, Size: 15.6 Inch
This is simply a basic backpack that is comparable to below $30 laptop backpacks out there, the only thing really that is stylish design in regard to color is the inside fabric color. I've gotten my wife other laptop bags that actually have more style on the outside and yet cost less. Very very basic packpack, just a tad bit overpriced. It actually looks like a middle school backpack if you think about it's plain design and those you can find under $25, the laptop compartment is just 20% better than than school backpacks.

Durable Material & Lots of Pockets
Color: Black, Size: 15.6 Inch
This backpack is perfect for going to work or going on a trip. The several compartments within each section of the backpack make it super easy to keep things organized and separated.
What I like:
* Pockets & Compartments - With 3 main compartments, each with additional pockets and zippered sections within, a front pocket, and two water bottle pockets on the sides, this backpack is definitely not lacking when it comes to organization and space. It is extremely spacious and has more pockets inside each section than I would have imagined. There's a place for everything - big and small!
* Material - The water-resistant material has a nice matte finish and resists water. It is durable and feels like it will hold up well with regular use. The zipper pulls are some of the best quality I've seen for a bag at this price point. They don't feel cheap or like they're going to come off after regular use.
* Comfort & Convenience - The shoulder straps have a decent amount of padding without being bulky, making the backpack feel more elevated than a typical school backpack. I LOVE the strap across the back of the bag. It makes traveling and moving through the airport a breeze - just slide the strap over your suitcase handle and you don't have to carry the backpack on your back.
What could use improvement:
* Interior Color - The only complaint I have about this backpack is that the listing says the interior color is tan and the color in the image is a light tan ... but the actual color is a gold color, which is not my style or taste.
Despite the discrepancy in the interior color, this backpack is a great option for a variety of uses, and the quality and durability make it a great option for everyday use as well as when you're traveling.
