[FWDLK] Another Bruce McCall post, make me stop.

[Chris Whalen <Yrapilje@xxxxxxx>]

Report on his Dream-O-Rama book, with quotes from the old Bulgemobile
brochure at:
http://www2.bitstream.net/~marksim/natlamp/

>From that site, I'm including it because of the Bulgemobile callouts (FORGOT
about "the cars that say Get Out of My Way!"):
Bulgemobile Fans Rejoice! The Last Dream-O-Rama: The Cars Detroit Forgot to
Build, 1950-1960" by Bruce McCall has just been published by Crown. This book
picks up where McCall's "Bulgemobile" articles left off.

If you want to check out the original articles: "The '58 Bulgemobiles" ("So
All-fired New, They Make Tomorrow Seem Like Yesterday!") first appeared in
the April '72 ("25th" Anniversary) issue. "The 1946 Bulgemobiles"
("New...from the tires down!") in the April '79 (April Fool) issue; "The 1934
Bulgemobiles" ("The new cars that say, 'Get out of my way!'") in the May '74
("50th" Anniversary) issue; and "The 1906 Bulge-Buggy" ("The Contraption of
Merit") in the April '75 (Car Sickness) issue.

End quote.

And here are two links to a 1999 McCall exhibit at the Goodman Gallery, with
many (very many and hilarious) samples of his work -- including 1948
Bulgemobile imagery but not advertising copy:

God bless the Internet.
