Collectible first edition, first printing of 1937 All-American Soap Box Derby and International champion Bobby Ballard's How to Build a Soap Box Racer: Blueprints, Construction Details, Helps and Hints. Published near the dawn of the soap box derby era, Ballard's how-to includes detailed instructions for building the Ballard car, blueprints and numerous photos of the then 12-year-old Ballard.

Topics include Tools and Materials, The Frame of the Car, The Axles, The Sections of the Body, The Brake, Assembling and Placing the Sections, Steering Gear and Covering the Body of the Car. Ballard was later a long-time inventor - among his accomplishments were the automobile rain switch and heated seat - he recently passed away at the age of 96.
