This 1940 photo in the exhibit shows the Willys-Overland Jeep test vehicle being driven up the steps of a building in Washington, D.C., to show off its versatility.
The exhibit, which includes documents, photographs and artifacts interpreting the history of Toledo’s economic development, will continue to be on display through Friday, Nov. 4, in the Ward M. Canaday Center for Special Collections in Carlson Library.
Viewing hours are Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. A free catalog is available.
The program is made possible in part through the support of the Ohio Humanities Council, a state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
