Kind of a trick question. I'm afraid responders were placed in an awkward set of choices. Each and every one of these examples � even the stage coach are all identified as Art Deco pieces and are pictured as such on the web. (Art Deco 1930 � 1945 pictures.) There are no other styles pictured for this trivia. I�m a fan of Art Deco design as it was perfect for its time between world wars. The design is really handsome in the right setting, for example, the Chrysler Building. That said, I kind of side with Ken on these examples. I also sympathize with Tom (he was successful with one) as he made the attempt to reason it out but was given no place to go. In looking for good examples of Art Deco these caught my eye as, well,�I don�t know. Anyway, there they are in their collective glory.
