Mummies of Ancient Eggypt: Rediscovering 6 Lives
From July 14 to October 26, the CaixaForum Madrid cultural space hostsed an exhibition made up of a collection of objects on loan from the British Museum in London, which explores the idea of ​​mummification and analyzes the testimony of six people who lived in the Ancient Egypt.
This sample contains six mummies of people who lived between 900 and 150 BC. C. in Egypt. Thus, through a non-invasive investigation carried out with the most modern technology, the discoveries that have been achieved by the hand of these specimens are exhibited.
Through scientific and historical evidence, it is possible to observe what life was like in these lands, the tools and techniques used for mummification, the medicinal recipes with which they were cured, the diet of those people, cosmetics and adornments, music, cultural exchanges and even the role of women and children in the Egypt of the pharaohs.
Mummification became a common practice in ancient Egypt, believing that the body had to be preserved in order to reach the afterlife. For them death was just the beginning and this represented the separation between the body and the soul.
The first mummies are dated between 4000 and 3000 BC. C. and it is thought that this practice could have come from accidentally unearthing some corpses, which had dried due to the heat of the desert. By keeping much of their physical appearance, they tried to manually mimic this preservation. In this way, they dried the deceased by extracting the viscera from the body and then dehydrated them with natron and embalmed them.

One of the three or four photos I have that are the only ones to be "interesting" enough to be permanent fixtures in Flickr Explore is, somewhat inexplicably, this picture of a refrigerated case containing Coca-Cola-branded products at the Merivale Road Blockbuster Video.
In the two years after I took that photo, there has been a change of the corporate guard: now Blockbuster only sells Pepsi-Cola-branded beverages.

Anubis was a jackal-headed deity who presided over the embalming process and accompanied dead kings in the afterworld. When kings were being judged by Osiris, Anubis placed their hearts on one side of a scale and a feather (representing Maat) on the other.

For this cabinet card back, see the full backmark illustration (above) and a detail showing the street scene in front of the photographer's gallery (below).
--------
Although the photographer's name and address appears as "Schlickeisen, 343 Central Avenue, Jersey City, N.J.," on the front of this cabinet card, the name on the sign in the illustration on the back is spelled as "Schlickeysen" (ending in -keysen instead of -keisen). In addition, the arrangement of the street number--"343"--in the palette shapes on either side of the Art Gallery sign is curious, ending with a smaller superscript "3" that seemingly was added after the fact.
Interestingly, Langdon's List of 19th & Early 20th Century Photographers provides some relevant information regarding Gustav Schlickeysen/Schlickeisen. According to Langdon, "Schlickeysen" was the spelling listed in city directories for 1888 and 1889, but during those years the photographer's address was 34 Hancock Avenue, Hoboken, New Jersey, rather than 343 Central Avenue, Jersey City, N.J. Directories for 1891, 1892, and 1893, however, indicate that "Schlickeisen" had already moved to the Central Avenue address in Hoboken.
It's not clear why the spelling of Schlickeysen changed to Schlickeisen when the photographer moved from Hoboken to Jersey City. Although the new spelling appeared on the front of this cabinet card, the sign in the artwork on the back retained the old spelling. The street number, however, was updated by squeezing an extra "3" into the palette shapes to indicate the change from "34" (Hancock Avenue, Hoboken) to "343" (Central Avenue, Jersey City). If the illustration depicts the original gallery in Hoboken, however, I wonder if customers at Schlickeisen's new gallery in Jersey City were still confused by the drawing despite the updated street number.
Finally, it's worth noting that a "Portrait" display case to attract potential customers is situated on the sidewalk in front of the gallery. And notice the horse-drawn tram passing by on the tracks in front of the gallery--an indication of how easy it would be to travel to the gallery.
If you think Sarah's meticulously selected and trained robotic army is composed of bots she just randomly finds at Target, you are SADLY mistaken. A professional like Sarah makes her buying decisions MONTHS in advance. You think assembling such a force is EASY?!?!
Another view of Ford's two Egyptian statuettes at a slightly awkward remove and facing at right angles from each other. If it was up to me I'd put the two cases closer together with the figures either facing each other or side by side. Maybe some day my photoshopping skills will be good enough to allow me to do that virtually.

The RUDSTA is a very cheap option for displaying a model car collection.
However, I had to perform a few modifications in order to dust proof the cabinets, such as apply black silicone sealant into the side gaps and weather strip around the doors.
I also fabricated metal support clips for the glass shelves, to replace the original (very flimsy) plastic ones.

Best decision ever!

I found this case at Michaels (Arts and Crafts supply) store for 40% off! The 1st one I got was for my Batman collection (will post later)
and I liked it so much I bought 2 more.

Mike McPhee Autographed Jersey on display in a bar in Halifax, Nova Scotia. He's from Sydney, Cape Breton, and was inducted into the Nova Scotia Sport Hall of Fame in 1999.
McPhee was the number 35 of the Montreal Canadiens from 1984 to 1992, winning the Stanley Cup in 1986.
Sadly, from recent pictures, it seems his mustache is no more, but we'll always have the memories.
