A slide of part of the abandoned W.T. Rawleigh's plant in downtown Freeport,IL. Rawleigh's started out as a door to door business selling mostly medicinal products, but later evolved into a giant corporation selling almost everything from spices to cleaners as well as home remedies. As times changed, their business started to fade, and by the '80s this plant only employed about 200 employees(it closed in the late '80s). Many attempts have been made to reuse this architecturally significant plant, but so far none have stuck,though the newer office tower has limited use. Rawleigh's survives as a online business....
Happy sliders Sunday all!
This was the site of the Krazy Kottag Kamp, a collection of rental cabins, cafe and Phillips 66 service station built in 1937 and destroyed by fire in 1947...rebuilt in 1948 as Tommy's Cafe with a Phillips 66 service station using the control tower from nearby Dalhart Army Air Field that had closed in 1945 after the end of WWII...originally a separate vestibule was built but that was changed in the 70's to include the bent door...later in the 70's it was forced to close with the opening of Interstate 40 and is in the process of being restored...
Because of Covid-19 this year, I've found that eventhough many of the children won't be going door to door like usual, many houses still went all out in decorating, keeping the tradition alive!
The blue-and-yellow Ukrainian flags hang out door to door at an apartment building in the Dutch village of Raamsdonksveer, North Brabant. The flags were raised in solidarity with Ukraine after the Russian invasion on February 24, 2022.

Here is a scene from our neighborhood during some Halloween Trick or Treating. Jessica and Joshua are shown under a very bright moon - a very pretty fall scene. Good weather but not very many people out of the street this year.

It was hot and humid that day when I took these. I watched a bee travel from flower to flower to collect pollen. It reminded me of a mail man going door to door except they would collect the mail :P

Bangladesh is going through a difficult period of time- the country has seen more hartals than regular days in the past few weeks.
This series of strikes are affecting the general mass, hampering business like never before, creating hysteria in the minds of the people.

A page from an issue fo Modern Railways, the early 1960s editions of which, are great in charting what was then a rapidly changing world in the UK's public transport sector. From 1963 onwards much space was given not only to the impending rationalisations, both before and after Beeching, but also to the new and evolving "house style" of British Railways that was from 1965 badged as "British Rail" with the now famous double arrow logo. This work was initiated by the British Railways Board's Design Panel, that was also overseeing design detailing of rolling stock, and by the consultant designers, the Design Research Unit.
In February 1963 an exhibition "New Design for British Railways" was held at the Design Centre in London to show the 'new look' and to guage public reaction to logos, uniforms and liveries. Following the adoption of the new look a further exhibition would be held in 1965.
As well as the double arrow symbol, new typeface and new liveries for passenger rolling stock the Railway's freight division was not excluded. The DRU came up with the new 'freight arrow' symbol as seen here and this was complemented by new liveries for both rail and road vehicles - "a colourful range of reds, blues and yellows" as described by Brian Haresnape, the author of this article. They were intended to stand out, no longer to appear dowdy and blend in to the world of freight. Two photos show the familiar Scammell tractor and trailer so beloved of the railway and a rail mounted container. The third photo shows the new coding panels introduced across all types of wagon and units.
It is interesting that in all the pre-nationalisation dated Port of Bristol handbooks mainline railways are sort of skirted round and there is seldom an advert placed by one - probably because the municipally owned port was in competition to the railways own docks, especially the GWR's South Wales estate! Anyhow, by 1965 British Railways were regular advertisers in the annual handbook and this dates from 1965.
It is of interest in that it not only shows a 'named' and badged fright train run - The Night Trader - but it also shows some of the shorter lived aspects of BR's corporate identity and titling in the years between the 'ditching' of the totem and a slightly more permissive Regional identity as seen here and the new British Rail house style that would be adopted in 1965/6. Of particular interest is the design of the Night Trader logo - it has some striking similarities to BR's "Door to Door" container logo of the era. The Rail Freight symbol was designed by Ronald Sandiford of the DRU.
The photo also shows the freight service being hauled by one of the Western Region's "Warship" class of locomotives, D813. Entering service in 1959 and named "Diadem" the locomotive was withdrawn in 1972.
I still get a kick out of this shot. The more I see it the more the more it makes me laugh.

Another photo from Saturday 18th December 1986, with 1950's vintage, Smiths electric milk float number 574 (307 KDH), pictured just after unloading 'empties' at the Co-op Dairy in Midland Road, Walsall.
Taken on a murky morning in February 1987, milkman, Gary Griffin updates his delivery book while sat in his Morrison 'D1' electric Milk Float in Kings Street Willenhall, Walsall, West Midlands, as a white Ford Cortina Mk5 travels along Walsall Street in the background. All this is now a distant memory.
I took this photograph of WIB 7303 as I traveled home from a night shift on the morning of July 11th 2017. This coach is a Volvo B10M fitted with Plaxton Premiere bodywork. Further details of original identity or previous owner would be gratefully received.
These Unigate Morrison D1 milk floats were once such a common sight throughout the West Midlands, it hard to believe that they have all long since gone. The picture shows Unigate 865 standing outside the entrance to Kingstanding dairy with the Kingstanding Road behind.
26th February 1987.
These stereographic cards are in poor shape even after some touch-up, but they're intriguing--and almost macabre--for their depiction of the perils of fireworks.

A simple pic of Fiona wearing her new button that she got at the Chicago Walk Now for Autism. It says..."I have autism, Please be nice to my mom" I love it!!! She has another one that says "I'm with neurotypical" with an arrow pointing at the person next to her, but no one ever gets that one. I guess they need to look up the term neurotypical. hehehe. I just thought this was so pretty. She wore her cheerleading uniform to go fundraising for cheerleading door to door. She looked so cute, but as usual, the people in my neighborhood are totally cheap. They won't even stop at a child's lemonade stand. Grrr...... Anyway. I thought she was beautiful and she is so brave when she cheers because it is very difficult for her to get out in front of so many people and then the noise bothers her so much. Last year went well without any stimming on the field, hopefully this year will too :))).
