Tail Lights
E-Magazine

An e-magazine produced by The Crittenden Automotive Library.  The first issue went out October 9, 2011.

The idea for "Tail Lights" came from Editor Bill Crittenden's passion for obscure and unusual automotive information and reputation for taking detailed photos of unusual angles of cars.  For the original, magazine-style version he noticed that nearly all of the automotive magazines in his personal collection show the front of a car on the cover, so each cover will feature the back of a car and the line "A New Perspective on Automotive History."  For the smaller, newsletter version, this was changed to "Automotive History from a Different Perspective."
