Collective 52: Construction

It's a week before tomb-sweeping day, and the hardware store in Honglu Jie has a selection of grave goods for sale alongside its normal merchandise. Loco No.3 passes with empties for Hongluchang.
Union Hardware is no more, but their quirky murals remain. I hope who ever takes over the space maintains them.

Existing light shot of the interior of Evers Hardware on Kodak Tri-X; one of the best films ever made and a dream for an amateur photographer, because you could develop it in your own bathroom. If memory serves, I exhibited this shot at the University of North Texas Museum in 1978.
Somehow, the designers of this c.1900 picture projector didn't provide a port for the computer cable!

Pan Am train PLED (Plainville, CT to East Deerfield, MA) has just entered New Britian, CT, a.k.a. Hardware City. Among many other hardware manufacturing companies, Stanley was established here in the mid-19th century. The wire coat hanger was invented here in 1869. And you can't forget the large Polish community here with great food!

Tried to repair the leaky bellows my GS645 came with. Let's just say it didn't quite work. :D
Had to bite the bullet and replace the bellows, which fortunately turned out to be much simpler than I thought.
Caught on the Hardware River at Dobby Creek - Hardware River WMA, Fluvanna County Virginia. Other fish I caught here were two Channel Cats, one Bluegill, and one Redbreast Sunfish.
This is no longer a hardware store but another downtown gallery. Nice of them to leave the sign behind.

A historic hardware store that has been open in North St. Louis since 1875. it is still in operation as of 2022.
Superior Hardware is a simple scratchbuilt store I constructed back in the late 1980's or early '90's but only recently added to my present layout. I used thin sheet styrene with an embossed concrete block pattern. The siding material was so thin I had to mount the pieces on frames cut from thicker sheet styrene from Evergreen Scale Models with reinforcements at the wall corners. The windows and doors are leftovers from other kits. Behind the clear plastic window glazing are paper cutouts from advertisements measured for relatively correct scale figures and details that look like store merchandise shelves. Not visible from this angle is a roof made from black emery paper mounted on sheet styrene. I used the same technique on Hugh's Grocery. The store sign is a Micro Scale decal mounted on thin, white styrene.
The only thing new is that I mounted the building on a base of 0.040" ESM styrene with some ESM "tile" for the sidewalks. I may add a tree to the right front of the building. On the right side is a rail spur serving the store, a sawmill, and a foundry / machine shop. On the left side is a narrow driveway behind the movie theater, and to the rear of the store is a loading area for this store and another store that may become a Woolworth or other five and ten. This spot was previously occupied by Joe's Garage and Esso station which magically appeared in the next town.
This sign seems particularly reminiscent of the previous decor package, but it still is not exactly the same.
While this store doesn't have as extensive of a selection of hardware as the one in Redmond, it still seems to be more than a typical Walmart or such. It is awkwardly spread out between this section in the alcove and the section seen a couple pictures back in the main part of the store, however, and the alcove as a whole seems rather hidden and off the beaten path for most shoppers, unfortunately.
