Mr Winderbilt and the Modern Conveyance Andrew Cottingham

THE 2OTH CENTURY: FROM SLAPSTICK TO SEMIOTICS... WASN'T IT FUNNY. The second of the disturbingly entertaining Mr. Winderbilt volumes, Mr. Winderbilt and The Modern Conveyance. What can one say? How about.. A madcap whirlwind sitcom chase through the tumultuous iconography of a bumper, war economy cardboard cover, big print, four-colour world. A comedy of manners, machines, militarism and mad cows. And at the still point of the turning umbrella: Mr. Winderbilt?
