More images from a photographer who shot in black and white and used a soft nostalgic focus. The images remind me of those from the rare German Black and White real photo postcards that were sold at Disneyland. First up is a head on shot of the trolley coming down Main Street.
Next up is a close shot of the riders and interior of the trolley.
This image showcases not only the trolley but also one of the early wagons. I believe this one is now on display at the Big Thunder Ranch Barbecue restaurant.
The second picture looking south-ish, back through town square and out the RR tunnel is a realistic gem. That has such a 'look' of reality that is rather wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThat's amazing--three pictures and three different trash cans! The first two photos show two differently colored open-top "Waste" cans while the last photo shows a couple of the more traditional cans. Did they run out of money?!
ReplyDeleteGood observation on the trash cans. That lighter color one looks just like this one previously featured: http://matterhorn1959.blogspot.com/2011/02/portrait-of-city-hall-main-street-usa.html
ReplyDeleteDid Town Square have it's own set theme of cans and then closer to the hub they went with a traditional design?
