the American Motors Corporation (AMC) factory in Kenosha,
Wisconsin. When the car first came on the market in 1975, it was

was one of the worst cars of all time.

Collier’s magazine, founded in 1888 by Peter Fenelon Collier, was initially launched
as Collier’s Once a Week, then changed in 1895 to Collier’s Weekly: An Illustrated Journal, and finally shortened in 1942 to simply Collier’s. The magazine ceased publication with the January 4, 1957 issue, though a brief, failed attempt was
made to revive the Collier’s name with a new magazine in 2012.
