Architect William Fox of Missoula, Montana, designed the Streamlined Moderne station for KPRK radio located just outside of Livingston, Montana. The building dates to 1946. The stylized radio tower above the front entrance is reminiscent of something straight out of a Buck Rogers comic strip.

The streamlined dream like clinker built oak of The Skidbladner calls out to those that can pack their sea chest as a seat from which to person the oars on an imaginary journey and hopefully the visitors will have notions of goods in their sea chest to trade and room there also to bring back their hard won treasures? This now land bound longboat affords a great prospect to experience Viking visions. The replica of the archaeological recovered Gokstad ship now sits next to a reproduction longhouse and both have room enough to house your imagination and also to inspire your dreams.

The Skidbladner
Budd streamlined cars have been a regular sight in the shadow of Denver Union Station for 34 years, but this is the last day that they will be here. Today, they are owned by Amtrak, and tonight, a different California Zephyr than the one these cars were built for will take them east toward Beech Grove. They will never be used in intercity service again.
A fine sighting of that barred underwing on the Painted Stork rising in a graceful flight from the marshes at Harayana's Bird Paradise only 50 Km from Delhi: a streamlined profile of a bird that invariably appears clumsy when landing in trees and on the marshes.
Widely distributed over the plains of Asia they are nevertheless listed as Near Threatened in the IUCN Red List: the largest secure population is in India

The very popular Remo, the integrated handles allow for effortless opening of doors , whilst creating a streamlined uncluttered look. The gloss finish pictured here adds real impact to the overall look of the kitchen, whilst any fingerprints or spillages are easily wiped away. Cashmere is a warm yet sophisticated shade, which gives you the freedom to accessorise with your own style ideas. #contemporary #robertcharlesinteriors #dreamkitchen #cashmere #gloss #cleanlines
Male Ringed Teal in Regents Park.
The Ringed Teal is native to Paraguay, Uruguay, northern Argentina and southern Brazil, it is a small teal that is very easy to maintain in captivity on a basic waterfowl diet. When it was first available to aviculture it was considered delicate and only suitable for maintaining in a tropical house. Over many successive generations the Ringed Teal has adapted to Captivity and become very hardy and can easily withstand a UK winter with no requirement for additional protection provided some open water can be maintained. The Ringed Teal is not believed to be threatened in the wild and is one of the more common waterfowl in captivity. As with many other southern hemisphere waterfowl the Ringed Teal does not have an eclipse (non breeding) plumage so the striking colours of the males plumage are maintained throughout the year once adult plumage is assumed at about fourteen weeks of age.
Got the whole lot in this time! Wild Ringed Necked Parakeet in Kensington Gardens. Spot the robin, I have only just noticed it!
Common Merganser
Common Mergansers are streamlined ducks that float gracefully down small rivers or shallow shorelines. The males are striking with clean white bodies, dark green heads, and a slender, serrated red bill. The elegant, gray-bodied females have rich, cinnamon heads with a short crest. In summer, look for them leading ducklings from eddy to eddy along streams or standing on a flat rock in the middle of the current. These large ducks’ nest in hollow trees; in winter they form flocks on larger bodies of water.

When the forced perspective adventure began, the one24thscale team naively imagined we could focus on the sleek, streamlined cars of the nineteen thirties. Ken marveled at how, during the greatest economic crisis the nation ever experienced, some of the greatest works of automotive art had been created. I share that sense of wonder. We wanted to celebrate those cars.
The Danbury Mint, 1934 Packard LeBaron was one of only a handful of die cast models we had to work with on that first day of shooting. We soon learned, yes there are lots of gorgeous models of cars of the rich and famous available from makers of die cast models. What proved difficult was finding scenes to use them in. There are only so many mansions around town to use as backdrops. In the rural settings we revisit time and again, about the only place for a rich man's car, is hot rodding down a country lane, disrupting the peace and quiet. Well, we did that story, a couple of times.
We even staged our own Concours de Elegance one hot July day, under the trees on the west lawn of the Grant-Humphreys mansion. We were able to spotlight a lot of high end cars in that series.
Finding a stage for the gorgeous cars of the deco era was the idea behind this set. It is meant to evoke a nineteen thirties, car dealer's salon. The buying experience was once very different, especially for high-end buyers. Though, I doubt they would have served you a Latte while you talked about financing.
In the months ahead, pandemic willing, you can expect to see more from this new time machine. Stay tuned!
No forced perspective trickery happening here! This is a photograph of a 1/24 scale die-cast model car in a 1/24 scale custom built 1930's car dealership.

The streamlined Redbone Coonhound, an American original, is even-tempered, mellow, and kindly at home but a tiger on the trail. Vigorous activities like hunting and swimming between long periods of rest is the rhythm of coonhound life.
I don't remember having taken a photo of the Brighton starlings where so many of them have had their wings back. I'm not sure if this was because it was windy (it was VERY windy!), or whether they were preparing to swoop low over the water. The blue in the background is the sky reflected on the sea. This was taken early on when it was still light.
The 202 was the smallest Peugeot in the second half of the 1930s. It was officially presented in March 1938. It shared more or less the body style of the streamlined 302. The 202 was distinguishable by just one horizontal ventilation opening at the side of the bonnet, and the one-piece windscreen and rear window.
In the early 1930s revolutionary aerodynamic theories were applied for the first time to mass produced cars. Avant-garde cars like 1934 Tatra 77 and the 1934 Chrysler Airflow gained a lot of positive attention. The 402 was Peugeot's answer to its direct competitor the streamlined 1934 Citroën TA.
The 02-series was developed by the Département Études Carrosseries, under supervision of Henri Thomas.
The Peugeot 02-series was also called Fuseau-Sochaux.
Note the lack of a running board.

Found at the Railroaders Memorial Museum in Altoona, Pa. This streamlined locomotive, designed for bi-directional operation was mainly used for passenger trains, but a few were re-geared for freight service. The GG1 survived longer than any other locomotive design, lasting from 1934 to well into the 1980s. The 79.5 foot long 230+ ton GG1 was built on an articulated frame which permitted its 2-C+C-2 wheel arrangement to negotiate tight curves even in congested areas. Power was picked up from an overhead 11,000 Volt AC catenary wire by a pantograph and the voltage stepped-down through an on board transformer to feed the 12 single phase 25 cycle traction motors. Each of these motors developed 385 HP giving the GG1 a total of 4620 HP in continuous operation and allowed speeds up to 100 mph. The body of the locomotive also housed large blowers for motor and transformer cooling, a steam boiler for passenger car heat, electric controllers and sanding boxes.
The hood ornament on a '40 Chevrolet has the Art Deco look of a streamlined locomotive of the same era.

Sleek, narrow, and built for the hunt. The Cobra helicopter’s streamlined design and formidable firepower make it an icon of airborne assault. Whether parked quietly or roaring into action, it carries the unmistakable aura of a machine built for combat.
Back in 2019, the RCP heads west through the woods on the Paynesville Sub on a crisp autumn morning. I wasn't a fan of this photo back then, when I didn't know what I was doing shooting with a DSLR, but now it's grown on me. I don't know who that woman is next to the train, or how she even got to that spot, odd.
"The streamlined Goosander is a handsome bird and a great fisher - its long, serrated bill helps it to catch and hold its slippery fish prey...It nests in riverbank trees, but can be seen on lakes and reservoirs in winter...
"The Goosander is a medium-sized duck and a member of a group called the 'sawbills' because of their long, narrow bills with saw-like 'teeth' which are good for gripping fish... A long, streamlined bird, it is perfectly shaped for swimming after fish...Goosanders are gregarious birds, forming flocks of thousands in some parts of Europe..."
"Male Goosanders are white, with dark green heads, black backs and long, red, hooked bills...The white sides and breast sometimes have a pink glow...Females are grey, with a gingery or reddish-brown head and a white throat..."
