Raymond Loewy designed the interiors of the first commercial Concorde airplanes in 1976. Andree Putman updated his designs in the 1990's. The Air France Concordes flew until 2003. Lots of color photographs and vintage black & white photos show the interiors and furnishings. Bibliography. 10" high X 7" wide, 159 pages. Heavy book, foreign shipping will be extra.
