Cover Story: Airflows and Zephyrs -- The 70th Anniversary Streamlining Symposium at the Petersen Museum

On the Cover: Very different in appearance but similar in concept, the 1934 Chrysler Airflow and the 1936 Lincoln-Zephyr were the first production cars to adopt fully the principles of streamlining. In celebration of the 70th anniversary of the first appearances of the Airflow production car and the Zephyr prototype, enthusiasts of both marques met for a unique symposium at the Petersen Museum in Los Angeles on January 17th. See story, page 4.
