Ever since I first set eyes on the towering image below I have admired the ads produced for the Budd Company during the late 40's and early 50's. They mainly featured specially commissioned works from the extraordinary illustrator Leslie Ragan. Sadly under appreciated in his time. These days Ragan's work could easily be considered as visual interpretation of scenes from Ayn Rand's futurist novel 'Atlas Shrugged'.
To see a lot more of Ragan's visions visit our Leslie Ragan gallery page. And to read a little more about this great commercial artist's work and influence I recommend these two excellent blogs Erratic Phenomena and Illustration Art
