Dolly of the Day: Standard Barbie - 1976
Another one! This girl has the lighter body with Francie Arms!
I have named her Anna, because I believe she looks a fair bit like the character Anna Bates from the show "Downton Abbey".

She is wearing "Here comes the Bride!" from the "Barbie and Ken: Wedding Party Fashions" collection which was released in 1979.
An early Standard Oil Company service station was located on the NW corner of Main and Fifth Streets in Cherokee, Iowa. This photo is believed to have been taken in April 1914 as the Bryant Paving Company was in Cherokee at that time paving streets.
Preceding Standard Oil (same frame building) at this site was the Lochyer and Hanlon Grocery Store. Later (sometime between 1929-1940) this building would be razed for the new Fixsel Oil Company service station.
Interesting to note are the wooden spoke wheels on the trucks, the old streetlight, the lettering on the side of the building that says "Fill Autos Here", and the steeple of the original Garfield School in the background.

Andrée Standart (or Standard) appeared in silent French films of the late 1920s as well as in the first French sound production.
We could not find more information about this actress than her filmography. Here it is. Andrée Standart started her film career probably in Le prince charmant/Prince Charming (Victor Tourjansky, 1925) with Claude France, Nathalie Kovanko and Jaque Catelain as the Prince. That year she had a bigger role in the comedy 600000 francs par mois/600,000 francs per month (Nicolas Koline, Robert Péguy, 1925) opposite Nicolas Koline and Charles Vanel. She played a queen in the comedy Titi premier, roi des gosses/Titi the first, king of the kids (René Leprince 1926). In the historical epic Nepoléon (Abel Gance, 1927) she played the minor part of Thérèse Tallien, who admires Joséphine de Beauharnais at a ball. She was credited here as Andrée Standard, and continued to be so in some of her following films.
Andrée Standard had a bigger role again in Le duel/The Duel (Jacques de Baroncelli, 1928), starring Mady Christians and Gabriel Gabrio. In Spain she appeared in La condesa María/Countess Mary (Benito Perojo, 1928) with Sandra Milovanoff. It was a coproduction with the French Albatross Studio. She also appeared in the war film Andranik (Acho Chakatouny, 1929). Her next production was the sound film Le requin/The Shark (Henri Chomette, 1930). A ruined shipowner (Rudolf Klein-Rogge) deliberately sinks his ship so that he can claim the insurance money. He is acquitted by the court but his wife (Gina Manès), who only just survived the disaster, takes her revenge by killing him. Le Requin was the first full length French sound film. It included several songs and dialog in the end sequences as well as a synchronized soundtrack. Andrée Standard’s final film was Le train des suicides/The Train of Suicides (Edmond Gréville, 1931). Locked in a train, several willing suicides are impatiently awaiting the death that has been promised them by an unscrupulous fraudster. Just when they have all been driven almost insane with anxiety, the door is opened and a detective unmasks the criminal.

Standard Class 5 73085 'Melisande' and S15 4-6-0 30511 stand near the primitive coaling stage at Basingstoke. Most unusually, 73085 has a new cast smokebox numberplate, presumably because the original one had been stolen. I cannot recall a similar instance at this late stage where a new plate was cast, at the best a home-made substitute was fixed by some caring fitter. I used to travel from Hook to Basingstoke to go to school, and after a while I worked out that by catching the 08:07 train instead of the 08:34 I had time to visit the shed every day. Film was expensive on 7/6 pocket money, so to take a camera on this occasion was special - I think that I wanted to finish off the film with 'Flying Scotsman' on that had passed through three days earlier.

On May 9, 2018, the 644th Regional Support Group (RSG) from Fort Snelling, Minn., furled its unit colors to signify the end of its mission within the Mobilization and Deployment (MaD) Division at Fort Bliss, Texas. During the transfer of authority ceremony, the 210th Regional Support Group (RSG) from Puerto Rico resumed the mission throughout the upcoming year.
The ceremony began with 644th RSG and 210th RSG Soldiers forming in the front of the room. Chaplain (Capt.) Bradley Wysomierski, 644th RSG Chaplain, opened the ceremony with an Invocation, which was followed by Sgt. First Class Joanne Makay singing the National Anthem.
At that time, Col. Dominic Wibe, 644th RSG commander, and Sgt. Maj. William Dullea, 644th RSG acting Command Sgt. Maj., cased the 644th RSG unit flag. Immediately after, Col. Javier Rivera, 210th RSG commander, and Command Sgt. Maj. Mario Canizales, 210th Command Sgt. Maj., uncased the 210th RSG unit flag.
Col. Steven Murphy, Fort Bliss Garrison Command, was the first to share remarks with the group. To the Soldiers of the 644th RSG, Murphy expressed gratitude to each and everyone, including family members, for dedicating the time to be at Fort Bliss throughout the last year. “Thank you for the job you did in the last year. You set the standard as the RSG for the mobilization mission,” he said. “The role you played was critical and the way you did it was phenomenal.”
Col. Murphy referenced the number of Soldiers the 644th RSG processed through MaD in the last year, being more than 60,000. Regarding the 644th RSG’s leadership throughout and the role in Fort Bliss’ expansion as the Mobilization Support Force, he said, “I saw the breadth and depth of what you did was fantastic.”
Col. Murphy equally welcomed the 210th RSG for the upcoming year and stated confidence in their success as well. “Thank you for being a part of the mobilization and demobilization mission. I am honored to be a part of your team.”
Col. Wibe then provided remarks, explaining the 644th RSG’s mission throughout the past year was nothing short of “enterprise accomplishments” and that each and every Soldier has a significant role in the success of the mission, each and every one is important. “You took ownership of every task, to the lowest level. You did your piece and you did it well,” he said. “The 210th RSG will take this mission and move it forward.”
Final remarks from Col. Rivera, “The 644th RSG has set the standard.” He explained the 210th RSG is ready to take on the mission at MaD.
Chaplain (Maj.) Luis Cardoza, 210th RSG Chaplain, provided the Benediction and the ceremony was then complete with the singing of the Army song.
About the 644th Regional Support Group and the Mobilization and Deployment Division mission:
During the 12-month mobilization, the 644th RSG conducted mobilization management operations in support of military operations around the world. The 84 Army Reserve Soldiers within the 644th RSG consist primarily of members from Minnesota and throughout the Midwest and will return home after showcasing their talents and skills to the U.S. Army and the federal government. The Soldiers departed in May 2017 and are anticipating on returning home to their families, friends and communities the later part of May 2018.
The 644th RSG managed the entire Fort Bliss Mobilization and Deployment (MaD) Division supported by 22 Department of the Army Civilians and 450 Department of Defense contractors. The 644th RSG has provided 24/7 administrative and logistical support for more than 65,000 members of the Active, National Guard, and Reserve components of the Army, Air Force and Navy, federal agencies, coalition partners, and contractors, who have mobilized and demobilized through Fort Bliss to multiple locations around the world.
The 644th RSG facilitated countless overseas flights and created orders for all personnel while coordinating deployment training support and redeployment support for Soldiers, Sailors, and Airmen deploying and returning from around the world. The 644th RSG Soldiers provided engineer support and information technology support in order to sustain and improve base facilities for support to contingency operations with a capacity of more than 9,000 troops at a time. They issued more than $2 million in food, fuel, and supplies, and maintain oversight of all integrated logistics policies, procurement functions, programs, and plans that enabled information operations support throughout the Army and other military forces while ensuring all sensitive item accountability. The 644th RSG operated the Soldier Readiness and Resiliency Center (SRRC), ensuring that all personnel who processed through the SRRC were 100 percent medically and administratively qualified to perform their unique missions in both the United States and overseas and are properly cared for upon their return from overseas.
The 644th RSG has been highly effective in ensuring all mobilizing and demobilizing units and individuals are ready to deploy throughout the world in support of National Defense. The 644th RSG has become a leading unit in the Army Reserve to provide necessary support to all units reporting through Fort Bliss, Texas, for contingency operations.
The 644th RSG is commanded by Col. Dominic J. Wibe. When not mobilized the 644th RSG consists of nine subordinate units, 1,150 Soldiers, that provide fuel, water, food, lodging, transportation, maintenance, and other logistical support as directed. The 644th RSG is charged with conducting base operations, base defense, and civil support missions both within and outside the United States.
His stance almost looks like a GSD's stance, except he's no where near as low in the rear. (Quite the tail, eh?)

This was For Sale, but there was no price given.
I'd quite fancy a Standard Eight/Ten as a starter classic, and if I was currently on the lookout for my first classic, I'd have seriously considered this, as it looked very tidy. Unfortunately, due to lack of space/storage, my first classic isn't going to happen for a while yet.
One thing which did intrigue me about this car, is that the front indicators don't look original, and look as if they've been added later on, but the rear indicators are in a cluster with the brake lights, as if they are original. There also isn't any trafficators, which makes me think that it would have had indicators as standard.
Top Singapore Runner with a strongly finish. I think his timing was 2 hrs, 28 mins! Outstanding!
