Artifact Overview

France's 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race is among the most prestigious events in motorsport. The 1966 race attracted notable spectators like industrial designer Raymond Loewy, seen here. Loewy's firm designed everything from Coca-Cola vending machines to Air Force One's livery, but Loewy is particularly remembered for his longtime associations with Studebaker and the Pennsylvania Railroad.
