Engine in rear? Tricycle wheels? Polaroid Plastic top? Atomic power? Just as at home in the water or in the air as on the highway?” This car of the future was designed and illustrated by Detroit-based commercial artist Arthur Radebaugh for a 1952 ad for National Oil Seals.

From the 1930s to the 1960s, Radebaugh’s detailed visions of the future appeared in ads for businesses as diverse as Coke, United Airlines, and National Motor Bearing. His syndicated cartoon column, “Closer Than We Think” ran from 1958 to 1962.

Hi,
Do you remember where you found the image Metropolis by Arthur Radebaugh? And do you perhaps knows who owns the copyright of his work? Thanks.
