Day 11

August 10, 1954 – Leader, Saskatchewan

“We stopped at Leader for petrol and leaving Helen in the car, the rest of us went into a drug store to buy films. The man there was intrigued with us and asked where we were going and where we were from. At first he said he had my size of film, but it turned out he was wrong. ‘You roll me over a barrel’ he said when he found he hadn’t any. As we were leaving he said ‘there are 3 or 4 scent sprays behind the counter if girls like scent.’ So we covered ourselves with “Miracle” and so on and went out reeking to the car to shock Helen.” /

 

Jour 11

10 août 1954 – Leader (Saskatchewan)

« On s’arrête à Leader pour mettre de l’essence. Helen reste dans l’auto pendant que les trois autres vont dans une pharmacie pour acheter des films. L’homme demande qui on est, où on va et d’où on vient. Il dit qu’il a les films dont j’ai besoin, mais il n’a pas la bonne taille finalement. “Je viens de me faire avoir”, dit il en réalisant son erreur. Pendant qu’on s’en va, et il nous dit : “Il y a trois ou quatre vaporisateurs derrière le comptoir, si vous aimez le parfum.” On se couvre donc de Miracle et d’autres parfums, puis on retourne dans la voiture pour surprendre Helen avec notre odeur nauséabonde. »

Burbank, CA - April 2015

"Mother and Violet". From a photo album I bought at an antique store.

I spend a lot of time in the studio fusing interfacing to fabric. At times I wish I had one of those big pant steamers like drycleaners have. That'd probably work well for interfacing, eh? Too bad they probably also cost $4k.

 

Also, it's really hard to capture steam on camera without much light. The steam always swirls up from under the ironing board in these cool twisty columns but I can't catch that.

We offer top notch service to people and businesses all around Hoffman Estates IL.

This image is heavily retouched using Photoshop Elements however it remains true to the original scene.

 

The framed board with the bobbins and the Jerri's sign are essentially untouched. The existing paneling has been cleaned up and extended equally around the board.

A stretch of Massachusetts Avenue that's halfway between Central and Harvard Squares in Cambridge.

A defunct Glo Cleaners & Laundry location is near our house (bottom right) and I shot it 3 years ago. When they started tearing it down in August I went by several times waiting for the demolition to get close to the sun logo. The now-closed store on Gaston (top left) at Haskell was replaced by a branch bank. Before it was gone sign there directed me to the main location (bottom left) and the other store that's still open in Lakewood (top right).

My favorite window display was in the dry cleaner's window, where he decorated a tree with garlands of dry-cleaning tickets, some of them reading, "STAIN."
