Pre-80s Automotive Design Coffee table book
The 1950s-1980s - what do all of these decades have in common?
Aside from me not existing in any of them - automotively speaking, there was a litany of engineering developments, an advent of electronical implementation and a slew of beautiful (and some highly questionable) design elements that were painstakingly crafted by hand; this book focuses on the latter.
This 11" x 11" (28cm x 28cm) book is 40 heavyweight matte finished pages of automotive designed captured on a period correct film camera and painstakingly developed in my bathroom. (some of which have not been seen by anyone other than myself)
This is the first installment of a trilogy of automotive design and although no design is perfect, this book is no exception. Unfortunately there were a few small printing errors (that to be honest, will probably only bother me) on this first printing of books, they have been discounted accordingly and I will be beating myself up till the end of time.
