Consumer Guide Cars Appraisal

whole Car catalog, by The Editors Of Consumer Guide

The item is identified as the cover of a book titled "whole Car catalog". The cover is primarily light grey or off-white, suggesting a paper or cardstock material. The title is prominently displayed in large, bold black sans-serif font, with "whole" positioned above "Car", and "catalog" placed below and slightly to the right of "Car". Below the main title, in smaller black sans-serif font, is the attribution "By The Editors Of Consumer Guide®". Towards the bottom of the cover, aligned centrally, is the publishing information "A Fireside Book Published by Simon and Schuster" in a smaller, similar black sans-serif font. The overall condition appears good, with some subtle creasing and minor surface imperfections visible, consistent with typical handling and age for a paper cover. There are no major tears, significant stains, or heavy wear apparent. The design is minimalistic, focusing on typography, which was a common style for publications in the mid-to-late 20th century. Based on the publisher and the nature of "Consumer Guide" publications, this item likely dates between the 1970s and 1990s, characteristic of a consumer reference or catalog style from that era.
