Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum, Cleveland

The Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum, in University Circle, is part of the Western Reserve Historical Society. Founded by industrialist Frederick C. Crawford of TRW in 1965, the collection began as the Thompson Products Auto Album. Its eclectic collection of classic vehicles includes a replica of an 1890s Cleveland main street, antique carriages, early Harley Davidson motorcycles, a Willys Custom Sedan and a P-51 Mustang racing plane used in the National Air Races.

The oldest car in the collection is an 1897 Panhard et Levassor and the most modern car is a 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser concept coupe. As of 2009 the museum has 34 cars over 100 years old, the largest such collection in the world. One of the rarest cars in its collection is an aluminum bodied 1932 prototype Peerless designed by Frank Hershey, which was never put into production and was the last passenger vehicle made in Cleveland.
