For the first time the importers of foreign automobiles will hold a show in Madison Square Garden, from December 28, 1907, to January 4, 1908. Some twenty different makes of foreign cars of all styles, together with their chassis, will be exhibited on the main floor, while the elevated platform around the arena and the galleries in the Garden will be given up to both foreign and domestic makers of accessories. Many of the exhibits which were shown at the Tenth Annual Salon in Paris have been imported for this show, and all automobilists who are interested in foreign cars, but who were unable to visit the Paris Show, will have an opportunity to see the latest and most approved types of high-priced cars.
It’s Time to Stand Up for Science
If you enjoyed this article, I’d like to ask for your support. Scientific American has served as an advocate for science and industry for 180 years, and right now may be the most critical moment in that two-century history.
I’ve been a Scientific American subscriber since I was 12 years old, and it helped shape the way I look at the world. SciAm always educates and delights me, and inspires a sense of awe for our vast, beautiful universe. I hope it does that for you, too.
If you subscribe to Scientific American, you help ensure that our coverage is centered on meaningful research and discovery; that we have the resources to report on the decisions that threaten labs across the U.S.; and that we support both budding and working scientists at a time when the value of science itself too often goes unrecognized.
In return, you get essential news, captivating podcasts, brilliant infographics, can't-miss newsletters, must-watch videos, challenging games, and the science world's best writing and reporting. You can even gift someone a subscription.
There has never been a more important time for us to stand up and show why science matters. I hope you’ll support us in that mission.
