I dunno, kind of reminds me of an old placard from the 50s...if only they had this kind of furrydom back then huh?
Thanks @F0XnR0LL for bringing back the retro... 😛
A P-40 in Brazilian service, showing her age as she was being flown into the 1950s. Just a sketch.
Happy publication day to John Crespi's _Manhua Modernity_, about the origins and early history of Chinese 漫画 cartooning, from the 1920s to the 1950s. It's FREE and OPEN ACCESS! https://t.co/U3rR2Mkxo9. There are some astonishing cartoons in here, like the examples below:
The Short SA.4 Sperrin (named after the Sperrin Mountains) was a British jet bomber design of the early 1950s. It was a conventional design, intended to be used as a 'fall-back' in case any of the more 'radical' V-Bombers failed to enter production. Only two Sperrins were built.
Georgia O'Keeffe is best known for her close-up, or large-scale flower paintings, which she painted from the mid-1920s through the 1950s. She made about 200 paintings of flowers of the more than 2,000 paintings that she made over her career.

Modelsheets of "simplified" Peter Pan characters designed by Tom Oreb. These were for Disney's TV commercial division during the mid-1950s. The Peter Pan ads were for Peter Pan peanut butter, natch. #wardsmorguefile
The worlds first jet flying boat fighter certainly inspired commercial artists of the early 1950s.
Here, an advert, a post card and a comic book centre spread cutaway, all feature the Saunders Roe A1; a type who's role was by-passed by history and technology in a few short years.
I wonder about the obscure illustrators who turned out these illustrations from British annuals in the 40s and 50s. Unsung and forgotten, their memorials are here in the pages of these yellowing tatty books.
The first issue of "The Ace!" was released back in the 50s. I think my Pops has a copy of it lying around. Her first story arc was called "Day 12 of the @CriticalBitCast #Acetober art challenge".
Super cool. Very Retro.

The J-31GA / Gyrfalcon Advanced is a land-based, export version of the original carrier-capable J-31C which entered service in the late 2050s.
It features a lengthy nose to accommodate even more fuel, making it an ideal choice for those countries that cannot afford F-35C/Ds. https://t.co/VS4Y7hmrr9

It is based on their 1950s AU fic that I wrote in Japanese.
