Browse and buy merchandise and books celebrating State Library’s Driven, our free summer exhibition, fuelled by nostalgia.

Take a drive down memory lane, celebrating the milestones we’ve shared with our cars, the adventures across bitumen, sand and dirt, and the enduring passion driven by our love for them.

Experience State Library’s remarkable collections dating from the late 1920s through to the gas-guzzling muscle cars and off-roading Jeeps of the late 1970s. Watch rare home movies of people and their cars as well as a huge array of motoring memorabilia and historic photographs. Embrace car culture through an eye-catching display of artworks loaned from across the state, including an inflatable car by renowned Queensland artist Robert Moore, and a large display of historic and contemporary license plates.
