3Title:  Automotive Industry Oral Design History Collection, 1974-2006 
 Accession:  91.1.1673 
 Creator:  Henry Ford (Organization) 
 Abstract:  The Automotive Industry Design Oral History Collection consists of interviews with approximately 130 automotive designers from the early-to-mid 20th century. The interviews were conducted in the mid-1980s by archivist Dave Crippen with The Henry Ford Benson Ford Research Center as part the inauguration of the Edsel Ford Design Center. The interviews were collected on cassette tape and later transferred to a variety of other media, including 1/4-inch reel-to-reel tape; diskette; and compact discs, and most were eventually digitized in the 2010s. Many of the interviews have also been transcribed and produced in hard-cover volumes. Extent: 20 cubic ft. and 8 linear feet (includes 76 diskettes, 35 1/4-inch tapes, approximately 470 cassette tapes, 160 compact discs, 75 bound volumes, 458 WAV files, and 471 MP3 files). The collection is open for research.
