Description

Pencil Sketch on tracing paper for tracing down to Illustration board drawing.

Released Automobile Quarterly Mag, Spring 1969 issue / Volume Z, Number 4.
[The New Bland!] Today's family car is fraud, What about tomorrow's ? by Syd Mead."The image the customer wants, even in a family-oriented car. He apparently does not object to the resulting not-so-subtle intrusion into the space in which he rides, and has, on the basis od past model years' sales figures, penalized the manufactures who insisted on playing is straight." The emblem gOGT-XSS-GT SUPER 500h is located under the door, in the wheel base area.page 388-389.
It was owned by a former student Patrick Bock, a pen pal who had interacted with Syd Mead in the late 1960s, asking him to teach him many things.

Great streamlined design aesthetic for the new rocket age that Mead incorporates the physics of racing with the pleasing organic feel to bridge humans and the elements.
