Randy Leffingwell Knihy

Jedinečná publikace o společnosti Harley-Davidson a jejích výrobcích poprvé představuje archivní sbírku více než 460 motocyklů značky Harley-Davidson vyrobených od roku 1903 do současnosti. Zakladatelé firmy archivovali od roku 1915 alespoň jeden kus od každého modelu a tato tradice pokračuje dodnes. Žádný jiný výrobce motocyklů nebyl tak prozíravý, aby uchoval svoje výrobky v rozsahu, v jakém se to za dobu více než sto let podařilo firmě Harley-Davidson. Archivní předměty nejsou jen kronikou historie společnosti, ale symbolizují též vývoj techniky, designu i reklamy. Podstatné je, že sbírka odráží životy těch, kdo konstruovali, stavěli, prodávali a osedlávali skutečnou americkou legendu.
