Slide 8 of 23
Notes:
From the 1930s through the 1960s, General Motors and other corporations carried out a relentless campaign to promote the automobile. The future was painted beautifully-"In the year 2000," it was said, the automobile would be truly magnficent. Every utopian science-fiction scenario involved cars in great number. Cars would fly through the air. They would go through the water. Everything that one might do, at that point, would be tremendously improved, ennobled, empowered by the use of the car. Prototypes were built by the dozens. There was even a GM car at the 1964 World Fair that had a built-in removable shopping cart, to cater to modern women, described in the GM material as "poor drivers" and "avid shoppers."
that bottom car is a "car to saturn"--from magazine--you will be able to fly to saturn for a nice drive
