Journey back to a bygone era when city streets and country roads were thronged with a rich assortment of horse-powered vehicles: ice wagons, drays, lunch wagons, delivery trucks, fire engines, buggies, carts, log wagons, stage coaches, hearses, and many other such conveyances.
You'll find them all in this treasury of over 250 authentic illustrations -- many unavailable elsewhere -- depicting a wide variety of commercial vehicles of long ago. The author, a former member of the curatorial staff of the Smithsonian Institution's Division of Transportation, has carefully selected detailed engravings of the period, many from rare trade periodicals in the collection of the Smithsonian, as well as photographs. Well-researched captions accompany the illustrations, focusing on how the design of each vehicle served its specific purposes and needs, and supplying various dimensions, coloring, and other details. The author has also written an engrossing historical introduction that sharply defines the development of commercial vehicles in an age of headlong expansion and industrial advancement.
Invaluable for anyone interested in antique transportation, this volume is also an ideal source of royalty-free illustrations for use in ads, catalogs, book and magazine illustrations, and elsewhere.

Love my mat!
Color: Pink, Style: 1/2 Inch
I’m new to stretching and recovery classes, and there is a lot of floor work. I was using the gym mats, but my knees, lower back, and glutes were hurting from being on the floor. This mat is the perfect thickness and feels wonderful during floor exercises. It gives me the extra cushion I need without being difficult to use. It’s also lightweight, durable, easy to clean, and easy to roll up for transport. The pink makes me smile. That said , the mat makes the classes more enjoyable.

Great value

Perfect exercise mat. It is nice and thick, and comfortable to kneel and lay on. Can't comment on durability, but so far, so good. Recommended.

Thick, soft, perfect for my service dog to lay on in restaurants, etc.
Color: Blue, Style: 1/2 Inch
I bought this for my service dog to lay on in restaurants, etc. It's super thick and soft. I cut it in half and I'm using the other half for my dog to lay on in the car. Excellent quality and I love the carry strap.

Comfortable and thick mat that’s great for workouts at home
Color: Black, Style: 1/2 Inch, Color: Black, Style: 1/2 Inch
I picked up this Amazon Basics extra thick exercise mat for home workouts, and it’s been a solid addition. The thickness is the first thing you notice—it provides good cushioning, especially for exercises where you’re on your knees, elbows, or back. The surface has enough grip to keep you from slipping during most movements, whether you're doing stretching, core work, or basic workouts. It also stays in place pretty well on the floor without sliding around too much. The mat rolls out flat easily and comes with a strap, which makes it convenient to store or carry if needed. It’s lightweight enough to move around but still feels durable. It’s not a high-end studio mat, but for everyday workouts at home, it does exactly what you need it to do. Pros: • Extra thickness provides good cushioning • Comfortable for floor exercises • Lightweight and easy to store • Good value for the price Cons: • Slight compression over time with heavy use • Grip is good but not premium-level Overall, this is a great budget-friendly mat for home workouts, stretching, or basic fitness routines.

Maximum joint comfort and durability
Color: Pink, Style: 1/2 Inch
I absolutely loved the color, and it offers incredible cushioning without sacrificing stability during balance poses. It is dense, doesn't lose its shape, and springs back instantly. The materials are high-quality, and it doesn't have that strong plastic smell that others often have. It is worth every penny for the comfort it provides.
