Pruned: Encyclopedia Retrofuturologica

While searching for images of Asteromo, I stumbled upon Fabio Feminò's gargantuan futurological collection. Here's one image taken from the gallery Il Futuro Visto dal Passato.

nice alex.
and the great thing about those ceramic tiles on the lustron homes - which incidentally were a federal disaster in their own right - was that they became the signature cladding of a little chain food mini-empire named "White Castle"

Excellent post - I typically enjoy all posts on Pruned and think it is excellent - so thank you.

However, I'm sorry to say that the link at the bottom of the post refers to my weblog and not the site for Fabio Feminò. I've made a note of this on my blog - but you might want to change it when you get a chance.

Oops! Don't know how that happened, perhaps due to an overzealous cmd-C maneuvers or a dissident cmd-V, but the link has been corrected.

Thanks for pointing it out, damien.

and mason, your interesting architectural connection there compelled me to do some googling, and I came across this documentary: Lustron: The House America's Been Waiting For. Sounds like a must-see. I'll hunt it down.
