The Society presents several awards each year in recognition of significant contributions to the publication, documentation and preservation of the worldwide history of the motor vehicle. We have awards for print media), non-print media, papers authored by undergraduate and graduate students, service to the cause of automotive history, and for the historical work of libraries, archives and museums.
