The Concorde, an E-type Jag, a recreation of Manchester'sThe Haçienda nightclub... and the TOPPER dinghy are to be included in what is expected to be the most comprehensive survey of postwar British innovation and design ever staged.
The V&A announced on Friday (20th January) plans for its big show next year which will showcase more than seven decades of the best British design with a timeline that runs from the austerity Olympics of 1948 to the less austere 2012 Games.
