Wow. I wish I had all day free to deep dive into this...! So much amazing art work.

And then there's this...

"Trampling Art for Profits."

Hmph.

I really love the 1950s artwork where everybody looks so nifty in their new gleaming homes.  

Some of these remind me a lot of the work of the late Bruce McCall, whose retro-futuristic stuff was often featured in The New Yorker.

What's in almost every image is hope for a wondrous future.
Cool, when we had that.

Hey, when I was a kid even nuclear war was “hopeful”.

Afterwards, we’d get to ride the giant grasshoppers!
