Vintage shots from days gone by!

54th and Minnehaha ave. in south Minneapolis.I lived on this corner in the late 70's.

 

Like the Cad. My learn-to-drive-car when I was 16 was a 54 Fleetwood...

 

With ya, Gary! When I first saw it, I thought, "Must be a couple visiting Japan back in the '20s or '30s!" Then I thought, HMMM! "Maybe that's the section of Stonehenge that they usually steer tourists AWAY from?

 

I know I'll catch sin from my MoPar buddies, but I've always thought DeSoto
had style all over their parent make in '55 through '57!

 

Its just an old early "Viagra" commericial!!-------HA!

 

cool

 

That was sculped/chissled by a famous artist. Dick..........something

 

You must have lived here in Johnson County, Kansas for a while?

 

The girl is Sabrina.

Mart.

 

If that is Father Time, looks like HARD times are a cummin.

 

I am pretty sure his last name was Hertz

 

It only does that here at work were we have photo hosting sites such as Photobucket blocked.

 

Thanks for explaining the red xs

 

Showed that VINTAGE pic to my young son. He immediately said, "Well, I wonder how long it took for the builders to erect that statue."

What an immature comedian! Very unlike us mature HAMBers.

 

I wonder what the couple in the photo thought the first time they viewed this actual print. Surprised, to say the least.

 

India comes to mind as why such a statue would excist.

 

Now I do not see any Red XXX 's But I do see a big Giant Rock that looks like a huge Rock Hard Johnson Phalus just behind them....

 

Good to see the statue photo was a hit.

undated (circa 1930s?) aerial view of a Vultee V1-A overflying Downey CA plant

 

Howard Johnsons in maybe Bourne Mass, the rotary before you go over the canal?. Look like Mass plates.

 

Vultee plant in Downey had it's own airstrip. It became North American Aviation for WW2 production. I worked there on the Apollo program 1963-'67.
