Fans of this stuff might also appreciate this book (Amazon.com link) by New Yorker artist and writer, Bruce McCall. It appears to be out of print, but I have seen copies at local bookstores. His stuff I love because you can look and look and look and still find something new and funny.
Right on, Shotsy-- I've dug McCall's work since his Lampoon days, and I find him the only artist who singlehandedly predicted the futurist "biggerisbetter" ethos in cars (the SUV), versus the relatively earnest and socialist Radebaugh (lotsa mass transit).
I dig BelGeddes designs too (very dashing and graphitey), but for sheer Jet Packiness, my money is on Radebaugh...
Here are a few more McCall Links.

Indeed. If only you knew three days ago.
