SOCIETY OF AUTOMOTIVE HISTORIANS E. P. INGERSOLL AWARD 2024


Society of Automotive Historians E. P. Ingersoll Award  (Oct 2024)  ms

I am honored and delighted to report that the www.americanautoemblems.com website has received the E.P. Ingersoll Award for 2024 by the Society of Automotive Historians.

The award was presented at the Society of Automotive Historians Awards Ceremony in Hershey on October 9, 2024 and was received by Mike Shears and his son, Murray John Shears, who was the real inspiration for the website.

The full citation for the award is as follows:

The 2024 E.P. Ingersoll award goes to Americanautoemblems.com. This website is a detailed repository that covers a diverse variety of American automotive makes and models dating from the horseless carriage era up to the postwar period. What makes this site unique is that it features a large number of historic photos and images that complement the emblems being displayed. Auto emblems are just part of the material to be found on the site, with vehicles listed alphabetically to facilitate navigation and identification. Exploring Americanautoemblems.com is like wandering through an antique shop or flea market; once you start looking at emblems, you find yourself falling down a rabbit hole of American automotive artifacts. The website is a wonderful example of what the E.P. Ingersoll Award represents, and that’s why it’s the recipient of this year’s honor.
