I can help — a few good ways to locate a 1950s car book titled The Iron Jungle:
1. Search library catalogs
- WorldCat (worldcat.org) — find which libraries hold it and request via interlibrary loan at your local library.
- Library of Congress catalog and local public/university catalogs.
2. Digital/archival sources
- Google Books (books.google.com) and HathiTrust (hathitrust.org) for scans.
- Internet Archive / Open Library (archive.org / openlibrary.org) — sometimes available to borrow or download.
3. Used/rare book marketplaces (search title in quotes and try variations)
- AbeBooks (abebooks.com)
- BookFinder (bookfinder.com) — searches many sellers
- Alibris (alibris.com)
- Biblio (biblio.com)
- eBay (ebay.com)
- Amazon Marketplace (used sellers)
4. Rare/antiquarian dealers
- ABAA member dealers (abaa.org) or independent rare bookshops — useful if the book is scarce.
5. Local options and alerts
- Visit local used/antiquarian bookstores, estate sales, and flea markets.
- Set up alerts on eBay, AbeBooks, BookFinder for new listings matching the title.
- Post a request in collector groups on Facebook or Reddit (r/whatsthatbook, automotive history groups).
A couple of quick tips
- If you don’t know the author or exact year, try searching with keywords like “Iron Jungle automobile” or “Iron Jungle cars 1950” and check variant spellings.
- If you want, give me any extra details you remember (author, cover color, publisher, city, a snippet of text) and I’ll try to locate specific listings or holdings.
