Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Flamboyant fins, embellished fenders, outrageous grilles: chrome details became the calling card of American postwar automotive design. Celebrate the sheer glorious personality of these accents that captured the exuberant and optimistic spirit of the postwar years. Everywhere, flights of fancy abound, captured in breathtaking photographic detail: the fantastic 1948 Lincoln Continental Cabriolet, displayed in the Museum of Modern Art; the 1953 Buick Skylark, with its signature tooth grille; or the classic 1957 Thunderbird. An eloquent tribute to a unique era.
