Sigh - For the last three years I've been looking for retro-futuristic prints for the living room at the old house (it was going be be "The Future That Never Was" themed) with very little luck. Now that it's too late, I find a place that has great stuff. Check out this...and this...and this...oh, and this!
Ah well. I can still get this to put in the kitchen of my new place - it goes with any decor.
This one

really captures that I.G.Y. feeling
On that train all graphite and glitter
Undersea by rail
Ninety minutes from New York to Paris
(More leisure for artists everywhere)
Though my favorite is this one:

It's got that "Norman Rockwell meets the Jetsons" feeling, plus the Mom looks like she was taken straight from the nose of a world war II Bomber(with some extra clothes and work gloves painted on)
