HISTORY

The Andersons' collection began with an 1899 Winton 4-hp Runabout and grew to include 32 motorcars and horse-drawn carriages. After Isabel Anderson's death in 1948, the collection was entrusted to the VMCCA, forming the Larz Anderson Auto Museum. The museum features exhibits, educational forums, and themed Lawn Events.
