The 1950s was an excellent time for American family harmony and for technology. Here, under an orange sky and brown cliffs, a family is motorboating on blue water in the shadow of the dam. On the hills, symbols of progress in the form of power cables, are strung like webbing across the landscape; lettering in green and red.
