1957 Cadillac Hood Ornament Design Drawing by Robert J. Scheelk, May 1955

Designer Bob Scheelk played a key role in establishing Cadillac's look in the late 1950s. His credits include contributions to the exterior styling of the company's top-of-the-line 1957 Eldorado Brougham, and interior design work on Cadillac's decade-defining 1959 Eldorados. These drawings, made by Scheelk, show several of his styling cues that were adopted -- and some that weren't.
