Drawers Y120 & Y121 are part of the Philadelphia Free Library collection.

The Simeone Museum shared the collection with the AACA Library. These images represent companies that provided the parts that go together to build an automobile. Due to the number of items in this drawers, they will be broken into several parts. The index provided by the Philadelphia Library is attached as a PDF.
