The bus cost 15 cents and the haircut cost 90 cents, which gives you an idea of the time period of this event.

ReplyDeleteI really like the Sunapee Souvenirs scan. I think the quality of this scan is really crisp and nice, and I like the simple white background. The objects you chose for this one scanned in really nicely and I think it's very nicely done!
ReplyDeleteI love 'President Stuart'! Something about it is just so funny that I can't help but laugh while looking it at. This photo is a great description of your personality as well.
ReplyDeleteI agree with trish this really sums up your personality i love these! i think my favorite is the presidential bobble heads i think its just humorous and has a really nice tone!
ReplyDeleteThe marble one is my favorite because I think the glass will really show up well in the cyanotype
ReplyDeleteI really like the one which have two people and a huge eye guy. It is funny.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the first "1940 Fashion by LRS", however I think the marble one will make an incredible cyanotype. The depth and patterns are amazing.
ReplyDeleteI like the marbles! I think you arranged them in such a nice way and it's a cool play on words!
ReplyDeleteI like the one with the marbles. I think the texture and values will make an interesting cyanoptype. I also like the composition of how they are scattered
ReplyDeleteI like the three presidents. I think it is so funny. I think your pictures are so different because you use a white background. The pictures look so clean and identified.
ReplyDeleteI love them all! but I think the marble scan will make for a really interesting cyanotype.
