1975 Artists’ Soap Box Derby
San Francisco artists race amazing machines
Andre Grewe makes websites for the School of Art & Design.
Way back in 1975, a whole bunch of San Francisco artists made, raced, and occasionally crashed $100 soap box derby racers in a SF MOMA benefit. This clip is a great archive of a particular place and time - and it's filled with great quotes like "A banana is the fastest fruit I could think of." Oh, and a car made out of bread.

I worked at San Francisco Museum of Art (now San Francisco Museum of Modern Art) then. It was a terrific event.
