I remember some fanciful design from THE SCIENCE OF SCIENCE FICTION, that had a banner that read:

-from AIR WONDER STORIES?

6.jpg reminds us of the Loening Flying Yacht also known as the Model 23 which won the Collier Trophy in 1921. That 4-seater set speed and altitude records. Powered by a 400 hp. Liberty L-12. A total of 16 were built.
