Spoonflower 1950's Challenge

This week's Challenge theme at Spoonflower is 1950s. Immediately the first thing that came to my mind was tail fins on cars from the 1950s. I love photographing vintage automobiles, but I'm actually clueless when it comes to knowing that make, model, and year they are. So - some of these may not be from the 1950s. I made a collage with a collection of photos I have taken of tail fins.


This photo is obviously of a Bel Air. I took this photo at Dallas Cars & Coffee. I really love going to Cars & Coffee. It's held the first Saturday each month at the Classic BMW Dealership.


This photo - was also taken at Dallas Cars & Coffee. I have no clue on the make and model or year of this vehicle. But it has a beautiful paint job and a fancy tailfin.


This photo was taken at the Mecum Auto Auction in Dallas, Texas. I have no clue what this is, but I thought it had interesting lines and tail lights.


Another from the Mecum Auction. No clue on this one either. It has a pretty paint job.


The remaining photos were all taken at the Mecum Auto Auction. This is another Bel Air. I think this blue was common for the Bel Air.


Not sure what automobile this fin was on, but look at those sharp lines!


This one is a Thunderbird - I really love the classic lines on this auto.


Hopefully I guessed correctly and these photos are of automobiles from the 1950's. I really love how my design turned out.
