Automobile heritage encompasses a complex range of artefacts and
activities. Beyond just historic vehicles which are the primary
artefacts of this niche, it also includes communities of collectors
and enthusiasts, private owners and public institutions, as well as
historic motoring environments, literally thousands of museums,
exhibitions and car shows throughout the world, and a range of
paraphernalia that includes both original and replicated
promotional materials, equipment and parts, and guide books.
Although automobile heritage has been the subject of some limited
research, Automobile Heritage and Tourism is unique in examining
its scope and role within tourism. The book looks at a vast array
of topics, from the experience of using and collecting old cars,
related destination development, automobile heritage and museums,
to events such as vintage automobile racing, promotion and social
change. It thereby provides a thorough review of the impacts of
automobile heritage on tourism. A number of theories provide a
framework and are analysed throughout, including those related to
the collection, display, exhibition and use of historic
automobiles. The title takes a global and interdisciplinary view of
the subject with international contributions from both established
and emerging scholars in the field. This book adds to the
industrial heritage tourism literature and will appeal to a diverse
audience, in particular those in the fields of cultural heritage
and industrial heritage tourism, but also practitioners involved
with the planning, restoration, exhibition and management of
automobile heritage attractions and events.
