Estate sale find. I absolutely adore these. Early 80's, I think.
They are pretty small. Approx. 6" tall.
Probably cost me about 25 cents, as they were part of a very cheap large bundle of goodies.

Saint Paul's Episcopal Church - Key West, FL
Duval Street - The Florida Keys - 11/26/21
*[left-double-click for a closer-look - stained-glass windows]
Duval Street is two miles long (traveling east to west) on this two-by-four mile-wide island, the furthest 'point-south' in the continental United States. You can dip your toes in the Gulf of Mexico, walk to the other end of Duval Street, and dip them in the Atlantic Ocean
all in an hour's time. St. Paul's Episcopal Church is the main focal-point right here in the middle of town. All along the way are shops and restaurants and that easy laid-back Key West Florida lifestyle.
Saint Paul's Episcopal Church:
The first service in the current building was on June 8, 1919. During this period many of the stained glass windows were ordered and installation began in 1920. The organ arrived in 1931, in time for the Christmas services. A major restoration of the church was begun in 1991 to save the building from collapse. The concrete used in the construction had been mixed with sea water and beach sand, which caused the steel reinforcing within the walls to rust and expand. This in turn caused many of the walls and columns to split. Work was completed in 1993 at a cost of nearly one million dollars. Today the church continues to stand as a beacon within the diverse cultural community of Key West . The church is open daily for prayer, meditation and visiting. Many concerts and other community events take place here and St. Paul’s plays a positive role in the community, artistically and spiritually. A magnificent church. Come and visit it.
{ Gratitude Day 2 : Memories }
Halloween is a fun time for many kids. Who doesn't want to dress up as whoever or whatever they would like? Many of us still dress up as adults! That said, I am thankful for the Halloween memories I made as a child -- that will last a lifetime. Now I get to live vicariously through my daughter!
PS- Aside from the tone shift to give this a *little* more warmth, this image is SOOC :)

When I asked Elisabet for some props, she produced two chairs made for children. I thought that this wicker chair was most fun, but looking at the result the other, more simple model, gave a lot more of grafic simplicity to the pictures.

#2 The only thing that really remains are the memories of a thriving business. The dilapidated structures are just an annoying thorn in the surroundings...

Finally! Got the shelves adjusted and the basics set up - furniture, stairs, etc... Now moving on to details (pictures on the walls, decor...). Top shelf - entrance, table for guests and counter (counter is still in progress!). Middle shelf - more sitting for guests. Bottom shelf - kitchen - also still in progress. I plan to make a long table for baking/cooking where the chest of drawers is sitting right now. Also, need to build entrance door for the top of the stairs.
But so far so good... A bit cramped, but with 1:4 scale it's hard to make a large display with limited space.

So like I said - no rules, good job as this is a couple of days late! Oh well.. at least i've been out and taken photos - and thats the aim of the game!
So, week 2 - This is Peter Hickman at Cadwell Park, round 8 of the BSB, where he won race 2.
Place: Guangzhou, Guangdong Province
Chinese name: 奇瑞旗云2 (qíruì qíyún 2)
Year of launch: 2011 (Cowin: 2003 / Fulwin: 1999)
Chery Automobile was the largest Chinese carmaker for quite some time, thanks to successes of the QQ, Tiggo, A5 and the old Windcloud/Flagcloud (Fulwin/Cowin) models. Chery is a state-owned company founded in 1997. It began automobile production in 1999 after acquiring toolings and a license to produce the first generation Seat Toledo. Interesting is that Chery was only granted a production license for passenger cars in 2003, which means Chery cars couldn't be legally sold until 2001. Until then Chery was officially only producing automotive components, albeit in a fully assembled form. In 2001 Chery solved the problem by piggybacking on a SAIC Motor license, China's largest state-owned car manufacturer. Chery surely knowns the way around the law... After rising tensions between Chery Automobile and General Motors (GM) and Volkswagen, two of SAIC's joint venture partners, the 20% ownership SAIC once held in Chery was sold. GM was not amused and filed lawsuits after Chery copied their Spark (Matiz) and Epica (Evanda/Magnus) models. Volkswagen also planned a lawsuit against Chery, because they apparently secretly purchased the Seat Toledo blueprints, which is quite interesting considering Seat is a subsidiary of Volkswagen...
The Fengyun or Windcloud, also known as Fulwin, was followed by the Qiyun or Flagcloud, also known as Cowin, in 2003. The Flagcloud had a unique front end and rear end. Chery had a terribly messy line-up after it launched three new sub brands in 2009, two of which completely failed: Rely, Riich (both now defunct) and Karry. One of Karry's products was the Karry Youyi, in the vein of cars like the Opel Combo Tour. The Karry Youyi was initially branded as Chery Karry before Karry became a new brand. The Karry Youyi is based on the platform of the Windcloud/Flagcloud, and also shares its interior with these models (and Seat Toledo). Chery further complicated their line-up when it launched a whole range of Cowin-badged models in 2010: the QQ6 continued as Cowin 1, the Cowin (Flagcloud) as Cowin 2, the A5 as Cowin 3 and the Eastar as Cowin 5. The Cowin 2 continued to be produced until 2016, which finally marked the end of the old Seat Toledo launched in 1991.
