After seeing the post I did the other day about men of the future as imagined in the fifties, my dad sent me these drawings.

He writes:

Boris Artzybasheff was a brilliant artist born in Russia who lived in Connecticut and was chiefly known for Time cover portraits often involving anthropomorphized machines.  I remember seeing these when they first appeared in Life magazine in the fifties. These are scanned from his book As I See which you’ll enjoy looking at when you next visit. Your Dad
