Before the advent of CAD computers, automobiles were designed with the hands of creative designers using natural elements such as clay, paper, pencils or watercolors. Preserving the artistic renderings and social impact is important for future generations to understand how cars have evolved into the technological wonders they are today.

The AACA Museum Inc. of Hershey, is in need of volunteers to help us digitize a massive paper archive collection that ranges from automotive blueprints to oral histories. Help preserve advertisements, field notes, ledgers, personal letters, photo albums, manuscripts, renderings stories and other delicate paperwork that help shaped the automotive industry.
