Description
View of a car pulling a Curtiss Aerocar trailer. Label on back: "This $8500 Curtiss Aerocar, a feature of the New York Automobile Show, is said to be the ne plus ultra in modern trailer units. Of true semi-trailer design, it forms, when aerocoupled to its power unit, an articulated six wheel vehicle. By streamlining, by its specially engineered balance, and by its method of attachment to the power unit, the Curtiss Aerocar is reported to handle and maneuver as easily as any large automobile. The unit, which is equipped with U.S. Royal tires, features many de luxe appointments and conveniences providing Pullman-like comfort on the road." Handwritten on back: "Camping, 1937."
