This is an original schematic diagram dated October 11, 1922 for the Willys-Knight model 27/67 sedan automobile. The paper is what I could call a thicker ‘onion skin’ type of paper. It measures just about 24.75 by 17 inches. It is well over 100 years old and is in fairly good condition. (See condition comments below.) The diagram is signed and dated by the original artist and I believe the name says A. Gravel.
From Wikipedia:
“Willys-Knight is an automobile that was produced between 1914 and 1933 by the Willys-Overland Company of Toledo, Ohio.” The model 27 and 67 was made between the years of 1922 and 1925”.
I obtained the diagram along with about 30 other various diagrams at an estate sale. The lady holding the sale said these belonged to her dad who worked for Willys-Overland Company of Toledo Ohio for 44 years in the records and library department. The company was founded in 1903 and the name was originally Overland Company but merged with Willys in 1926 to become Willys-Overland. The Willys-Overland Company is still in business, but now just sells replacement parts for Jeeps.
This diagram will look fabulous when framed and hanging on a wall. It’s perfect for an antique automobile restorer, an antique car club, an antique car collector, and many other situations.
CONDITION:
-Right side has a vertical stain .measuring approx. 1.25 inches wide. This stain looks like dried rusty water. (Could probably be covered by a frame).
-Lower border has a tear measuring bout a quarter inch.
-Other age related items. Remember, this is over 100 years old.

Buyer to pay $5.99 USPS First Class package shipping charges. Delivery is from Arizona.
SPECIAL NOTE about SHIPPING CHARGES: Twice yearly and again in November for the holiday season (so 3 times each year) the postal service increases shipping charges. This is what they call their “Delivering for America” plan in which they hope to become profitable. It’s a 10 year plan that started in 2021, so we’ve got years to go with multiple price increases each year. I try to absorb some of the new charges and haven't increased my shipping charges in three years. This year, unfortunately, I have to increase the shipping. I'll try to keep it reasonable and even absorb some of the changes when possible.
I do combine shipping on multiple items purchased as long as all items can fit safely into a single box or envelope. However, my web host is not set up to calculate multiple item shipping costs. At checkout, you will be charged full shipping price on each item purchased and I will refund the appropriate amount of overpayment. If you are uncomfortable with that, you can send me an email with your zip code and stating which items you'll be purchasing and I'll calculate the correct combined shipping charges and send you a custom invoice.
INTERNATIONAL PURCHASES: Sorry, I do not ship to locations outside of the United States.
All items in my listings come from either estate or garage sales. I do not know if they came from homes where smoking or pets were present. All items are sold in the same condition as when I received them.
