Created in Wombo-Dream with a prompt from the Classic car show I shot last August... Happy Truck Thursday, Everybody!!
Fuji X-E2 plus pancake lens. These are just a few of these charming 1930s semi-detached homes. Millions, I would think, had been built. And I once lived in one of them - and did enjoy it. Yes, they were mass-produced and standardised, in that respect they are repetitive and predictable. Not predictable is who is living in these homes. Neither can you know whether there will be more of these 1930s on the left or the right of the image. Predictability has its limits.
Going away pic of Brush car 621 at Talbot square working a heritage special to Fleetwood. 621 is in 1930s green & cream 24/9/22.
There's pink in this image? Really? I hadn't noticed. :)
I picked up a very cheap bunch of pink Carnations in the supermarket a couple of weeks ago and they still look amazing! The porcelain half doll dates back to the 1930s and would originally have been sitting on top of a pin cushion. The 'feathers' on her hat are actually a piece of eyelash yarn just draped across. :)

The 'Layer Cake Hall' of Davey Street, Bath, Ontario, built in 1859.
This photograph is a copy of one taken in 1938 by Douglas May, who sent the reproduction to Deseronto Archives some 65 years later. It had previously been erroneously identified as the Union Church, Deseronto's first church building.

My maternal grandmother. Arrived from the Faroe Islands and fell in love. (It lasted more than 70 years :-) Photo from ca. 1936. She was born April 4, 1916, and died last fall. She was all joy, kisses and hugs! Photo of a photo.....
This Christmas bauble was hand beaded with sequins and pins by me. I have a Christmas tradition. I bead Christmas baubles for a select group of friends every year.
Each bauble is 15 centimetres in diameter and contain hundreds of sequins, varying in number depending upon the complexity of the pattern and the type of sequins I use. All the sequins in this bauble are 5mm in diameter, including the flowers. The flowers are vintage French metal sequins from the 1930s in this bauble, so they are rare. Depending upon the colour of the sequin, I will use either a gold or a silver pin to attach it to the bauble. I always leave the flower sequins until last, allowing a gap in the sequin chain to pin them in.
These baubles are smaller than some others I do, and because it is a simple pattern which starts from the inside and is worked outwards in ever larger circles, each bauble takes approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours per side.
It is however, a labour of love which I do to pass the time throughout the year.
The house has been redecorated many times since 1937 but, behind the bath panel, a few flakes of original paintwork remain. Pastel shades clearly weren’t the fashion in 1937!
Thanks for looking.

When it was my birthday six months ago, a very dear friend who enjoys photography as much as I do, and knows that I collect beautiful and vintage pieces, gave me a wonderful selection of antique ribbons, buttons, buckles, lace and other fine notions. She also gave me three follow up tins of similar delightful gifts for Christmas.
Those wonderful gifts are what has inspired me to create this series of "Embroider my World" images featuring my vintage bobbin collection. In this case, the wonderfully delicate net baric embroidered with minute blue and pale pink sequins I bought yesterday from a shop that specialises in luxurious and unusual fabrics. I could hardly wait to use it! The fabric was manufactured in Milan. I have accessorised them on a 1930s embroidered tablecloth with two Dewhurst's Sylko Peach Rose reels of cotton which dates from between 1938 and 1954 and a small Edwardian cotton reel of soft Kingfisher Blue made by J. P. Coats.
Belle Vue Mill, commonly known as Dewhurst’s, was built by Thomas Dewhurst in 1828. It opened in 1829 as John Dewhurst & Sons and was one of Skipton’s largest spinning and weaving mills. The mill’s position next to the Leeds Liverpool Canal meant that raw cotton could be shipped in by boats from Liverpool. Finished goods would then be sent back the same way ready for distribution. Coal to power the machine’s steam engines was also delivered by barge. In 1897 Dewhurst’s was bought by the English Sewing Cotton Co. It continued to produce Sylko, one of the mill’s most famous products. It was produced in over 500 colours and sold throughout the world. Sylko cottons are still available at haberdashers today.
In 1802 James Coats set up a weaving business in Paisley. In 1826 he opened a cotton mill at Ferguslie to produce his own thread and, when he retired in 1830, his sons, James & Peter, took up the business under the name of J. & P. Coats. In 1952 J. & P. Coats and the Clark Thread Co. merged to become Coats & Clark's. Today, the business is known as the Coats Group.

Millions of these houses were built in Britain from around 1930. They were "modern" (the bathroom was inside) and usually had two bedrooms upstairs and downstairs lounge, reception and a small kitchen. They also came with a piece of garden. Getting one of these was a dream for many people on modest income. They still are attractive, particularly when modernised, and much preferable to some of the newly built houses. Sony A7iii.
I saw a photo about 1930s Manchester and I have attempted a digital painting of it.
I don't know:
Who she is
Where she is going
What those papers she is carrying are
A mystery.
Did an Urbex trip into Detroit recently.
4 years and counting, since this #cocacola ghost sign was revealed when the building next to it was torn down. I figured the sign was from the 1930s. Slowly the building is falling apart with graffiti showing up inside the structuring. Not sure what those red painted areas are, since they did not exist four years ago. Maybe someone painted over some offensive tagging.

Spotted this tiny model in a junk shop, being 1930s style it just shouted out . 'buy me!!' I was old before I was born and hold a deep affection for the 30s era.
A convertible inspired by the Rolls Royce models of the 1930s.
I intended to build Gatsby's yellow sportscar from F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "The Great Gatsby" but then realized that I have only little parts available in yellow. So I went with white and dark red and built something else...
An early 1930s Austin Seven I believe, either way it's car number one for the 2021 Border Classic Car Rally through the countryside of northern Lincolnshire back on 27/06/2021. Seen here just moments after the start of the event at Elsham Hall. Not bad for a car almost 90 years old.
