Twentieth Century Limited: Industrial Design in America 1925-1939 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781566398930)

In the late 1920s streamlined became the term businessmen used to describe new models that were easier to produce and those that met with less sales resistance than older products. Illustrating this concept with streamlined objects from soup cans to the Chrysler building, Jeffrey Meikle's work celebrates the birth of the industrial design profession from 1925-1939. This second edition includes a new preface and improved photographic reproduction.
