I just learned of (and just met at Comic Con) the artist and Renaissance man who once worked at Petersen publishing on CAR-toons in the early 70s, and just recently made a full collection of his CAR-toons work
What a great explanation for the Sphinx!
I bought my copy for 35 bucks I think it was... and wow, it's like a 70s time machine!
I recommend it for the Hogg In Oz spoof, and the History of the Car, parts 1, 2 and 3. The cartoon spoof on spaghetti westerns is pretty cool too.
read this interview... https://comicbookhistorians.com/william-stout-illustrator-and-creative-architect-with-alex-jim I had no idea William Stout got Grace Jones into the Conan movie
There's never been a "making of" book on Lilo and Stitch, until now... and it's quite cool, and explains how the most unique animated Disney movie came to be
and how one scene was changed because of 9-11

It's 1927 and Prohibition is the law of the land. The night shifts are never dull... and it's been animated very well and named - Lackadaisy
The varied cast of characters each brings unique edges to the classic Prohibition setting, fleshing out a typically gritty drama with a playful (but dangerous) sense of fun. It's a very character-driven series, with a blend of dramatic beats and surprising comedy filtered through the classic dangers of the gangster genre.

lol, do you realize how rare it is for me to find something about a Lagonda to post?
someone brought a Rohr to Pebble beach, it's the first one I've seen photographed in this century. 1932 Röhr 8 Type F Streamliner
This car, which took third in its class at Pebble Beach, was initially displayed at the 1932 Berlin Auto Show.
I posted about the Rohr over a decade ago https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/07/1933-rohr-rare-german-luxury-show-car.html
