AUTOMOBILE BLUE BOOK. 1926 ----TITLE: Official Automobile Blue Book 1926 Standard Touring Guide of America. Volume Two Middle Atlantic and Southeastern States. ----BACKGROUND: The Automobile Blue Book was an American series of road guides for motoring travelers in the United States and Canada published between 1901 and 1929. It was best known for its point-to-point road directions at a time when numbered routes generally did not exist. Wisconsin became the first state to number its highways in 1918. This emphasis on providing separate routes for each city connection led to volumes often containing more than 800 pages to describe the hundreds of routes contained within.
