  1. A brilliant selection - Helck was a master of all things mechanical! Back in 1984 I corresponded with him about his work for Fortune magazine and despite his advanced years and failing sight he was generous in his response. It can be seen at http://www.fulltable.com/VTS/f/f/ph.htm

  2. Phil- Thank you for this- I had not seen it before. My grandfather was indeed losing his sight at that point, a very sad thing for an artist who otherwise retained all of his facilities. -Peter Helck (the younger)
