Description:
It’s up for debate (my Lettera 22 might have something to say about it, given she’s in the Museum of Modern Art), but I find this to be the most aesthetically excellent machine in my collection. The body harkens back to facades of pre-War buildings in its subtle architectural undertones. And that BURGUNDY... let these pictures paint the thousand words!
Writers: TS Eliot, Joe DiMaggio
