According to Conger, the image in the present lot was made while Weston and Charis Wilson were driving south on their way to Tesuque, New Mexico. The pair stopped along Highway 66 to examine the abandoned wreckage when Weston created this abstract image of the peeling top of the old car.

Conger locates other prints of this image in institutional collections including The Museum of Modern Art, New York and the George Eastman Museum, Rochester (Conger, Edward Weston, fig. 1173/1937).
