[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by samfp1943 Raymond Loewy was considered to be the "Father of Industrial Design" he was durning the 1930's to 1950's the creator of many designs, from the paint scheme used on the Air Force's Presidential aircraft (starting with Kennedy's 707, and on to the current 747), the coke bottle, and most of the Pennsylvania RR's streamlined locomotives, the K-4 Pacifics [see this web site] http://www.steamlocomotive.com/pacific/prr/ He also designed the S-1 and the T-1 streamling features, not to mention the styling features of the Pennsy's " Broadway Limited" . If you "Google" Raymond Lowey there is all kinds of information, and photos on this man. He was to the Pennsylvania Railroad, what Otto Kuhler was to the New York Central RR. Sam [/quote] He also did the Lucky strike "red dot" cigarette pack, the shell oil logo, the exxon logo where the X's share a common cross, and the Greyhound bus "vista dome" among many other things. Here is an excerpt from Loewy's personal note pad I found interesting: http://img79.imageshack.us/img79/1208/loewy7py.jpg
