1927 - 1889 Henry Nadig Automobile - Allentown PA
A photograph of Henry Nadig's gasoline-powered automobile, taken in 1927. Nadig began working on the car and had it running by 1889, a full four years before Charles E. Duryea unveiled his gas powered car in 1893, which is usually given credit as the first vehicle of its kind in America. It is now on display at the America On Wheels Museum on Front Street in Allentown.
