| This "Safety Car"
was designed by Raymond Loewy for the
Cornell Aeronautical Research Laboratory and the Liberty Mutual
Life Insurance Company. This engineering project suggested many
safety features, but the vehicle was never built.
Loewy sketched the basic elements of the design creating
a solution that was both attractive and secure. The graphite,
colored pencil, and ink drawing, is dated September 11, 1956.
This was six years before the design of the Avanti. This original
rendering is in the Prints & Photographs Division of the Library
of Congress.
