1965 Jeep Commercial Vehicles Sales Book

This was on eBay. I bid on it for a while, but it got too rich for me. Finally sold for $199.35. Congrats to whomever won it!
“This is a original Willys Jeep Dealer Sales Catalog, the front page is dated 1965. This is roughly 103 sheets of original brochures from Jeep and the Accessory Manufacturers in a three ring binder, making it about 206 pages of information. The front cover says Government Sales. It has the Jeep Universal and Cab Forward models along with all specifications and every approved accessory I could think of and a lot I would never have thought existed. Some pretty interesting accessories from the expected winches, lockout hubs, PTO’s, Cabs, etc. to the unexpected like complete fire fighting units, agriculture equipment, street sweepers, camper shell, aftermarket bodies, wreckers and on and on. The photos just show some of the pages, I used up all of the photos just showing some of the content. It is used and out of dry storage in dry New Mexico so there is no mustiness to it. The pages look like they have been used very little, however it is 50 years old so there is some expected shop wear from age, nothing real major that I could see. I think the photos pretty much show the treasure trove of information in this book better than I can explain it.”

The First Jeep by Paul Bruno

Last month I learned about Paul Bruno’s new book, The First Jeep. “The First Jeep” is the initial release in Bruno’s Project Management in History series which will continue to investigate the entrepreneurial lessons that can be learned from compelling historical projects.
I’d planned to read it and report on it, but my time this month has disappeared (where did it go??), so I haven’t had a chance to read it yet. However, I wanted to make sure I mentioned the book in case anyone wanted to order it. As soon as I get done reading it, I’ll update the post with my thoughts. I have thumbed through it and learned that it’s got both early jeep history coupled with a parallel discussion of lessons to be learned form Bantam’s experience.
