Let's try to narrow the field a bit. Did the designer we are looking for work for Raymond Loewy at one time?

Wendax · « **Reply #30 on:** February 04, 2015, 05:37:06 AM »

I'll have to look that up tonight, but I think rather not.

Edit: I couldn't find any connection to Loewy.

Regardless of whether the model shown is for a big name manufacturer, did this designer work for a big name manufacturer(s) (not limited to today's three big name manufacturers)?

Wendax · « **Reply #32 on:** February 04, 2015, 01:08:00 PM »

Yes, he worked for two of the Big Three and at least two other US manufacturers.

Is this Joe Oros (or one of his contemporaries - born about 1920) who worked primarily for Ford, but also for General Motors and Nash?

Wendax · « **Reply #36 on:** February 04, 2015, 04:09:54 PM »

The man in question is a contemporary of Joe Oros and he worked for Ford, but not for GM or Nash.

4popoid · « **Reply #37 on:** February 04, 2015, 05:06:45 PM »

Is this Elwood Engel, a contemporary and friend of Joe Oros, who worked for Ford and Chrysler (I have no reference regarding work for any non "big three" companies)?
