EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph showcases the unique nose design of a 1959 Nash Metropolitan, an American automobile with an interesting backstory. The Nash Metropolitan was not actually produced by the Nash Motor Company, but rather a make-over of the Austin A40, a compact British car manufactured by the Austin Motor Company. The Austin A40, popular in the UK, was imported into the United States by the American Motors Corporation (AMC) and given a new identity as the Nash Metropolitan. The Nash Metropolitan's distinctive nose design, as seen in this image, was a result of the Americanization process. The round headlights and chrome grille were added to give the car a more appealing look for the American market. The Metropolitan's original design, with its slender headlights and simple grille, was considered rather plain by American standards. This photograph offers a close-up view of the Metropolitan's nose, revealing the intricate details of the headlights and grille. The chrome accents gleam in the light, adding to the car's overall appeal. The Metropolitan's compact size, combined with its unique design, made it a popular choice for those seeking an affordable and stylish vehicle in the late 1950s. This photograph is part of The Peter Butt Aviation Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. Peter Butt was a renowned aviation photographer, but his collection also included a diverse range of automotive images. This photograph, along with others in the collection, offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of automotive design and the global exchange of ideas that shaped the industry.
