Corwin Getaway (1 of 1).

While the 1969 Corwin Getaway is just a footnote in automotive history, it represents something of a landmark in African-American history, being the only instance on record that a Black visionary created a vehicle planned not just for himself but for his community.

Cliff Hall was chief photographer for the Los Angeles Sentinel, a Black-owned weekly newspaper, when he hit on the idea of producing a small, maneuverable car for LA commuting that would be built right in the city, thus providing jobs and design opportunities for people in the poorer sections of LA. Hall completed a prototype of the Corwin, which he showed around the city, even presenting it at the 1970 Los Angeles Auto Show. It received an enthusiastic response from a number of Black celebrities, including Muhammad Ali, Sidney Poitier and Marvin Gaye.

He didn’t want any more big cars in the LA area either because of its traffic problems, and he thought a small car that was nippy and rational would be absolutely perfect for the city. The chassis and body were all designed by Hall, and it has a sleek body too with no air intake at the front.

It's incredibly aerodynamic looking, and Kendall says it might have a great drag coefficient should it ever end up in a wind tunnel. What Hall designed was a little, mid-engine car that managed to get a lot of attention. But Hall himself never got the money to put the car in production, and it remained a one-off creation.

Cudillero, Spain (No. 5)

In the nineteenth century, the desired municipal autonomy of Cudillero arrives, partly due to the importance of the fishing port and the need to expand the port arises, which would not come until the twentieth century.

In the twentieth century, the construction of a new port was awarded, the works were in different phases and ended in the eighties. The road to Galicia is also remodeled.

In 1995 Cudillero won the first edition of TVE's Grand Prix del verano contest.
