- Description:
- Clifford "Baldy" Baldowski cartoon depicts a car on the showroom floor. Arrows are pointing to its features: "swivel headlights with winking system for the super cool," a "windshield tinted prosperous pink," a "telescoping howdah" that "doubles as southern veranda" and "closes as extra baggage rack," a "selftuning color TV for driver not wanting to take his eyes off screen," "racing stripes to match sports slacks," an "afterburner for expressing contempt in congested traffic," "jet nozzles for holding in middle of road while D.U.I.," "double wide ovals for squelching bugs in the parking lot," "mink lined bucket seats adjustable to any size bucket," "trash container for disposal of any significant energy policy or fuel saving devices," and a "portable bar with remote-controlled jigger." An attendant is standing next to the car holding the hose of an empty gas tank.
