It's a little bit amusing to see "American Style" taking credit for Danish Modern furniture and Barcelona chairs alongside Saarinen and Russel Wright......

takes me back to my childhood. love that announcer's voice - i don't know his name but he and the music bring back the era, as much as the design.

as much as the design does.

That was fascinating. And gorgeous. Does anyone know the narrator's name? I agree with godsfool, very familiar.

Love the cold war propaganda via commodity fetishism. The American way: freedom through choice of material goods.

Excellent cinematography, too. Too bad the credits are missing.

The other 2 parts of this show can be seen on the archive.org website. I'm pretty sure there will be credits somewhere in there.

The "American Engineer" one is quite charming as well (I believe it was funded by the same company that did the "American Look") though it's obviously not as household-design oriented. :)
