The Airplane Book: cover
From the flickr page:
I found this at a thrift store. When I showed Andrea that I was going to buy it, she replied, "Why?" It didn't look like much of a find to her. But then I had to show her the glory (or horror) of what was inside....
I talk more about this book on my blog. http://wardomatic.blogspot.com/2005/08/airplane-book-horror-of-color.html

BBQ Family
From the flickr page:
Illustration by one NAIAD in July 1974 Good Housekeeping magazine. It may be 70s but the drawing has more of a 50s/60s sensibility, eh? Love the linework and colors.
