The Model 265 "Aristocrat Custom Built" cornet was Buescher's tippy-top cornet model from the mid-1930s until 1939, when the new Model 225 "400" model cornet became the top horn.
After 1939 Buescher supposedly replaced the 265 with the Model 266 Custom Built cornet, which was essentially a Model 265 with a different valve block, wrap, and cosmetics that looked something like those found on the new 400 horns.
The model 266 did not last long, nor did it's Custom Built brother, the cosmetically similar Model 240 Trumpet. They may have been too expensive to manufacture at the same time as the 400 horns; Buescher simply dropped them without making a fuss and kept making the Model 265 as their Custom Built model. They may not have ever stopped making it, even as they made the Model 266.
I built this small temple with wood and inlaid marble. The entire structure is 5'x5'x7'. (Part of installation at Journey Arts Gallery, Three Rivers, MI)

In 1967 the Ministry of Transport commissioned a fleet of seven custom-built Bedford vehicles to go around the country promoting British production techniques. Only one bus survives and it took the current owner Ollie Halls five years to retore the mobile cinema to it's pristine condition. The Vintage Mobile Cinema seats 22 in comfort and has a state-of-the-art HD digital projection unit. Above the cab there is ( for the 1960's ) a futuristic-looking clear Perspex dome.

Built by Otto himself from Columbus Zona and Reynolds 853. Stainless lazer cut decals and head badge brazed with silver.
Aluminium bodied, custom-built camera for 127 format relying to large extent on the mechanics of a Foth Derby.
Used were the Foth Anastigmat f2.5/50mm lens and focussing helical, the strut and bellows system and the cloth focal plane shutter unit with speed settings of B, 1/25, 1/50, 1/75, 1/100, 1/200, and 1/500. The camera also utilises the notched pressure plate with the two red windows from a Foth Derby 2A/2.5.
The unit is hard to date. It clearly utilises components drawn from a Foth Derby 2A which was introduced in 1932 and which was replaced in 1935 by the Forth Derby 3 (which had two green and two red oval windows on the back).
Note the absence of a viewfinder, the presence of an accessory shoe (presumably to fit a removable rangefinder?), and the addition of a larger shutter adjustment knob shaped from the brass fitting of a Bausch & Lomb Optical Com. Rapid Rectilinear lens. The camera has a has a snap-on back lid and the unit is overall is VERY WELL machined.
It is unclear whether this camera is a prototype of some sort, or whether this is a highly skilled personal modification. The fact that pencil-writing on the inside of the fully removable back lid states "winding end" is not necessarily indicative that it was a British-made unit (although it was acquired from the UK).

For the sixth year in a row I created a Christmas Lego exhibition for the mall Moldetorget, in down town Molde. This is the third year that we placed it in the window of Norway's oldest photo store, Birkeland Foto AS.
This year I created a Christmas market. You can see a Xmas tree seller, a toy maker, a woman selling food and decorative items and a Pizzeria/Bakery. At the end of the street is a church.
90% of what you see is custom built by me, but there are some models from Lego as well.
Oh, and I also included a lot of film, comics, TV and nerdy references. Can you spot them?

The station of Possenhofen, a village on the Lake Starnberg, 30kms southwest of Munich. The bavarian royality owned a chateau in Possenhofen and to have a conveniant access, bavarian King Maximilian II had this station built in 1865. Elisabeth of Bavaria (aka "Sisi") spouse of Francis Joseph I, Empress of Austria, Queen of Hungary, Croatia and Bohemia, spent her youth here. Later she often returned for holidays, using custombuilt "imperial waggons", that parked here. Now it is "only" a station of the S-Bahn, the Munich suburban railway, but inside is a little "Sisi-Museum", officially named "Kaiserin Elisabeth Museum".
The finger hook is made of nickel-silver, which is harder than brass. Probably why this one isn't bent. The hooks on Buescher's Aristocrat and Custom Built horns looked like this from the '30s to the '50s.
