Never got one. Couldn't figure out how to hand my pictures on the wall.

Thanks Trabi! I didn't know they were this historical. That's amazing stuff! 

I found the one I photographed on the internet- it's in Frisco, NC.

Gamera, heres link to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futuro

And in this few more pictures: https://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futuro

And obout the architect: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matti_Suuronen

I remember those when I was kid. One was on the way to our summer cottage. That was used as a office of some car seller. Wish I could get one. Nowdays those are all almost gone or in ridiculous prices Sad

If Greg wants too much for his flying piz- um saucer I've got this one for sale. 

I only accept payment in gold-pressed latinum though... 

 

 

 

 

 

OOOO! Futuro house!! That´s epic!! Finnish design! Those are very hard to get nowdays.

Do you have all the original furnitures there too? 

 

Oh sorry Trabi- not my house. Wish it were though! I was driving around the pirate Blackbeard's old territory visiting some museums off the North Carolina coast when I saw that and it was so awesome I had to turn around, stop on the side of the road and snap a few photos. I didn't want to go on the owner's property so I didn't get close enough to look in the windows. 

That is cool though, didn't know it were Finnish! I'm going to have to look Futuro up and see what else I can find out about it.

Hey!'G"

      Didn't that come from the " Invaders Series?"

 

The cycle of going from dust to dessert. The metamorphosis from being the ruler of a planet to an ingredient in someone's soup. It's tonight's bill of fare from the Twilight Zone.

     Now the most important part of the ride. You must listen to a three hour tutorial about how Humans are the only ones to mess up where they live. 

The video is titled "To Serve Man".

Everybody is getting so serious!.

      Guys and Ladies, C'mon now, we have to lighten up or the politicians will have us right where they want us. I for one am looking for a lightly used U.F.O. ( Prefer the Saucer shaped type.) Must have a range of at least 200 Parsecs.

   I would offer up rides to the orbit between the Moon and Earth for those who just need to get away from all the B^&&%$##( for a while.) Coffee, Iced and Hot Tea and snacks are free. Steak and Taters optional. My Robot can't cook a hamburger without burning it !

     Now the most important part of the ride. You must listen to a three hour tutorial about how Humans are the only ones to mess up where they live. All the while looking at that jewel like planet we are orbitting.

     A planet so full of life it's getting crowded to unbelievable numbers. Yet, From Space, it is the most beautiful orb in our solar system! The life it's mainly full of is US!

 So sit back and enjoy your trip and when I bring you back maybe you can help figger out how to make all critters on the planet live in peace.That means those Micro-Organisms that don't like us too! This is the only planet we have, so look at it, savor it and Live in Health and Peace on it. Me, I am going to Andromeda to visit the hobby Shop on the planet Phlubb in Gonna Gettit city!( Best translation).

      Darned it, There I go looking at the Forbidden Planet Model Saucer and daydreaming agin. Silly old man!!

 

Lol. I would like a ticket please. In fact--I'll come back later after everyone destroys each other. Sheesh.

I don't have a saucer but I have a triangle, you know, like the one in Phoenix? Probably won't work for you though.
