Morooka uses the term ‘car’ in the widest sense of the word and includes images of trams, trains, buses, racing cars, traffic wardens and car mechanics. This book was intended for a special fan audience. When Morooka took the images he could not have foreseen that forty years later people would feel nostalgic about the shapes and models of vintage cars. On the contrary, Morooka shot cars because they were at the cutting edge of modernity. As such this is an interesting example of the way in which history can entirely subvert the intended meaning and even the nature of an image.
