Found Ektachrome Slide Dated, January 1972, State Street, Chicago, Illinois

I pulled this one out of the box and just sat there. Some slides you glance at and put back. This one I couldn’t stop looking at.

Christmas time on State Street, Chicago, Illinois

Bond’s big red neon is burning on the left. Wieboldt’s is packed, people inside grabbing last minute gifts and staring at the Cinnamon Bear displays. Burton-Miller and Cole’s signs are glowing too. The whole block is alive with shoppers going in and out of the stores that used to make this the greatest shopping street in America.

Way down there you can just make out the Chicago Theatre sign. And even farther, those two round towers sitting on the river are Marina City. Bertrand Goldberg designed them in the early sixties. They were still new then, these giant concrete corn cobs with apartments and a parking garage and a marina underneath. Everybody in Chicago knew them.

Richard J. Daley was mayor. He had just won his fifth term that spring. The machine was still running strong and downtown was still the place you went at Christmas. The suburban malls were starting to steal customers but on a night like this you wouldn’t have known it. State Street was lit up and full of cars and people.

And those cars are all boats. Full size Chevys and Fords and Dodges with chrome bumpers you could land a plane on. Vinyl roofs. Bench seats. That yellow one is a Checker cab. Two lanes of American steel rolling under Christmas lights.

This slide is one of the ones that makes the whole collecting hobby worthwhile. This is not AI. This is 55 year old historical authenticity.

I've posted this before and this is %100 real footage, filmed by an Italian movie maker who moved back to Italy when the war broke out in Europe and never returned to the US to finish his movie. The footage was remastered and colorized, and I put it back to B/W. The smoothness of the video is from it being remastered. All the buildings line up perfectly, and the sign outside of the Shedd was from the group who donated to fund the building. But a bunch of idiots will comment anyway saying that it's fake.

My toddler loves Monsters Inc. especially Mike Wazowski.

Yesterday I was in Walmart and came across this cool t-shirt.

I immediately bought it, put it on in the car, and rushed home to show my toddler.

I hunted her down as soon as I came through the door.

She was sitting on the couch watching Hogi and eating Goldfish crackers.

I said, ‘Libby check out my cool new shirt!’

I was beaming. I just knew she was gonna think my shirt was the coolest shit ever.

She looked at me, looked at my shirt, scoffed, and yelled, ‘GO AWAY!’

Listen.

I don’t think we talk enough about what huge pieces of shit toddlers are.

That’s literally my TV you are watching.
I paid for those Goldfish crackers.
That’s my fucking couch.

I bought this cool t-shirt ONLY because of you.

And this is your response you f#ggot piece of sh!t??

You are wearing a shirt with a turtle on it that says, ‘Turtley Adorable’ you fuck!ng idiot.

You are broke.
Homeless.
Have poor life skills.
You can’t even fucking speak English.

You are basically a Somali immigrant only brighter in complexion and with much less forehead mass.

I’ll wipe my ass with this shirt.

Fuck this shirt.

Bitch nigga.

Your mom is fat.

The plot for ‘SPACEBALLS 2’ has been revealed:

“Somehow, Dark Helmet has returned! 40 years after the events of the first Spaceballs, 50 years after the events of Star Wars: A New Hope, and 1 year after the events of The Devil Wears Prada 2, the galaxy is once again under threat.

A threat so evil, so unstoppable, so completely lacking in any original ideas, that it has vowed to bring back the past… every last bit of it.

With Lone Starr in hiding, Queen Vespa on the throne, and the Schwartz stretched thinner than a franchise releasing TV episodes theatrically, the only hope for the galaxy is Vespa’s undisciplined son, Prince Starburst, and a mysterious Palace advisor named Destiny.

Together, they must find Lone Starr, Yogurt, and any other iconic legacy characters fans are demanding before they discover the hard way that, while some threats you can fight, the reboot is not one of them.”

This is NOT AI
This is an actual recording of drums being played on the battlefield during the Battle of Gettysburg. There are other recordings of civil war soldiers that have been authenticated.

Conor McGregor REACTS honestly to yesterday’s attempted beheading in Northern Ireland….

"CLOSE THE BORDERS. Enter IPAS centres militarily and remove all illegal entrants from this island. Inviting and financing mentally deranged people from the third world is a hard NO. Get them out. Stop them coming. We say no to this."

The Bears were hoping this property where Our Lady of the Blessed Shroud stands would be demolished so they could build their new stadium. However, at the last minute, someone came up with the $5,000 over due tax payment.

@brianheadwelch @JC_SHAFFER Yo, let the people know, is it exactly the same as the red one, just a different color scheme? Or is it completely different?

[Buzz Patterson @BuzzPatterson]

Oh, Hillary. Hillary, Hillary. You ignorant slut.

As the Senior Military Aide to President Bill Clinton, YOU’RE military aide — the officer who carried the nuclear football in and out of the White House every single day — I saw the “people’s house” up close alongside you. @HillaryClinton

Spare us the sanctimonious lectures. And turn on your replies, coward.

When you and Bill left in January 2001, your staff ransacked the place. Remember?

“W” keys ripped off every keyboard. Phone lines cut. Desk drawers glued shut. Obscene voicemails and vulgar graffiti left behind.

Presidential seals and silverware stolen. Furniture damaged. The GAO confirmed the vandalism and theft. It wasn’t “transition friction” — it was a disgrace.

You trashed the People’s House on your way out the door and now you’re clutching pearls over Trump?

I remember, Hillary. I was there. Remember?

The hypocrisy is Olympic-level, Ms. Clinton. And you know it! You of ALL people know it!

The American people have long memories. Especially this one! Me!

We remember who actually looted the place.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Shut up and color.

[Pro-Pain84 @PPain84]

@Korn Is this exactly the same one as the @JC_SHAFFER model, just a different color or is it tweaked differently?
