The things that define a decade don't necessarily fall within that decade. Take 1959 for example; in my opinion 1959 has more to do with the can-do attitude of the early 1960s than it does with the can-doowop 1950s.
Today's Website Spotlight is on Plan59, which provides us with a view into what's called "Mid-Century Art." This hopeful era falls within the first twenty years of the Baby Boom generation - 1945 to 1965. Best part of this site are the awesome old car ads! I'd say this pic of a `58 Ford wagon pretty much defines the hopefulness of the late 1950s. And if there's something you like, it's available as a print right through the website.
So check it out and spend some time on Plan59! Enjoy. Kurt
