Nakashima. The artist gave the couple a tour of his workshop,
explaining his design philosophy and his passion for crafting
soulful, practical and unique creations. They fell in love with
all of his works, but the young newlyweds could only afford
a modest coffee table at the time (Lot 175). In 1965, they were
able to purchase several more works by Nakashima to display
alongside their cherished table, adding to what would become
an eclectic and unique family collection.

The following nineteen lots represent an extensive private

The family began working with the artist in 1969 ordering this large
collection, which includes both rare works as well as three custom
furniture designs produced by Saridis of Athens. A tragic fire in
1978 destroyed the collection and it was re-ordered in its entirety
that same year, including the custom designs.

The present lot is a painting completed by Gil Elvgren in 1944
for the advertising agency, J. Walter Thompson Company.
The painting, an original presentation board, features a crystal
ball and inside a proud man driving a car next to a beautiful
woman waving. The illustration was for one of the agency’s
earliest and most successful advertising campaigns for Ford
Motor Company—There’s a Ford in your Future. The campaign
slogan was devised as a way to address the shortage of
automobiles as resources were allocated to the war efforts.
Through use of the crystal ball, the campaign cleverly looked
into the future to a time of peace when all American families
could own a car.
The campaign lasted a couple of years and the creative did

change over time. The earliest incarnation of the advertisement
simply included a crystal ball with the Ford logo in the center.
This was followed up just a couple months later with Elvgren’s
happy and proud couple alongside the words, “Sure you’ll be
proud of it!” The advertisements were a success and marked
the beginning of a 67 year partnership between J. Walter
Thompson Company and Ford.
Sure you’ll be proud of it..There’s a Ford 290
