1920 Touring Car Patent Canvas Print, Vintage Automobile Blueprint Art

Description

This canvas reproduces a 1920 patent drawing for an open, five-passenger motorcar. It comes in two sizes, 11×14 and 16×20, each gallery-wrapped. As a 1920 touring car patent canvas print it reproduces the plate exactly as it was drawn and filed, octagonal radiator and all, with nothing added and nothing simplified.

The drawing shows a five-passenger touring body: an octagonal radiator shell up front between two octagonal-rimmed headlamps, a long louvred bonnet, and a folding windscreen ahead of two upholstered bench seats. Four doors, running boards, and wooden-spoke artillery wheels finish the layout – the open-air, coachbuilt look of an early automobile before closed sedan bodies took over. For an antique car collector or a fan of early automotive design, the drawing itself is the draw: the actual 1920 patent record, not a modern illustration made to look old.

Each canvas is made to order in our family-owned workshop in Northeast Ohio, printed with fade-resistant inks on gallery-wrapped canvas so the edges are finished and ready to display without a separate frame. It settles naturally into a den, office, or garage as antique touring car wall art, and pairs well with other automotive patent pieces for a collector’s gallery wall. The aged parchment tones hold up under normal light for years without fading, so the fine linework of the radiator and wheels stays sharp.

Hanging is simple: each canvas ships with wall hangers that peel, press, and hold securely without nails or tools, and they remove cleanly later without holes or wall damage. Pick the 11×14 for a shelf or narrow wall, or the 16×20 to anchor a larger space. It arrives ready to hang, with nothing else to buy.

Add this 1920 touring car patent canvas print to a gallery wall of automotive history, or let the open-touring silhouette stand alone above a desk or workbench. Choose the size and style that fits the wall, and it arrives ready to display.

Every order is made and packed by hand in our family shop in Northeast Ohio. We use premium gallery-wrapped canvas, high-quality frame material and fade-resistant inks for both prints and canvas. Each frame is made to order and shipped same or next business day.
