While luncheoning at the Central Texas BBQ with Trey today, I was struck
by the vibrant 1970’s Michelin “X” and “ZX”
posters attached to the wall. Beautiful illustrations, in oil paint and
oil pastel, depicting olive and orange racing coupes powersliding over
rainslicked streets; great green military vehicles peering out of the
night; the umbilical highway of a modern city, full of vehicles proudly
using the high-performance all-weather radial to ferry their passengers
back to the suburbs in the rusted summer evening.
(I would show you an example, but this stupid Internet thing doesn’t
seem to want to help me out.)
