Photographs from an August, 1999 Edsel show in Roanoke, Virginia |

Here we see actual photographic proof that from very close up (so close that it's almost an abstract image), even an Edsel can be beautiful . . . |

Was this grille's designer inspired by a horse collar, or a toilet seat? YOU be the judge! |

"Maybe if I don't look at them, these hideous cars will just go away!" |

Exhibitors at antique car shows seem to be very fond of displaying these ' Time Out Kids' dolls . . . |

To my eye, this one actually looks pretty sharp, as long as my eye doesn't look at the grille too closely . . . |

Then there's this one -- the color, the body style . . . yecch! And what taste-impaired person thought an Edsel station wagon would be a good idea? Such a terrible perversion of the noble 'woody' . . . |
