Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. 1st printing of Summit Books edition from 1984 of the Smithsonian exhibition catalog. "From toy ray guns to individual flying platforms for infantrymen, from Hollywood miniatures used as props for science fiction movies to Buckminster Fuller's 1928 Dymaxion House, YESTERDAY'S TOMORROWS is a dazzling, amusing, and fascinating look at the ways Americans in the last one hundred years have imagined the technology and lifestyle of their future. The authors, guest curators for the current major Smithsonian exhibition, 'Yesterday's Tomorrows,' present a vivid array of architectural models, industrial prototypes, toys and games, original drawings, and illustrations to examine and interpret in text and pictures the American proclivity for speculation on the future and faith in material progress. With special emphasis on visions that have not yet come to pass---at least, not as predicted---this 'history of the future' shows the sometimes whimsical, often brilliant conceptions of homes, cities, transportation, communication devices, and weapons that have shaped the American imagination of the future."
