Watch the Fords Go By
by A. M. Cassandre
"Watch the Fords Go By" was part of the "What was Good Design" exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art which focused on well designed everyday items from the mid 1940s to the mid 1950s.
Leisure, automobiles and suburbs defined the middle class lifestyle during this time. Highway construction allowed middle class families to leave the city for more space, recreation and safety while maintaining necessary access to the city for work and entertainment.
