I have a cold, so this seems to be a good time to upload some of the ephemera I took down when the site was in peril. I found this charming hand-coloured photo at the St. Lawrence Market Sunday collectibles show here in Toronto.

Denis Croissant, Gisela Plewe, Will S., Steve Bucknell and 5 other people have particularly liked this photo

Naive colouring of a recent past...
Hope you'll soon be better!

I had a car much like that, but a few years newer I suspect.
And take care of the cold!

I think it's a '51 Chev, Bob, but I'm scarcely an expert. I feel better today, thanks.

I hope you get well.
I also caught a cold in November, but it took ninety days to really heal well.

Interesting stuff John. I have no idea how someone would go about hand coloring a mono photo!

Hope you feel better soon :-)

Thanks, Keith. I think a marker was used here. I especially like how they got tired of colouring the grass.

An artful idea.

Thanks, Gisela, although it's not my idea. Now that you mention, it, though, some experimentation might be worthwhile.

And an old, old photo, Diane. I believe that's a 1950 Chevy. I wonder if anyone got in trouble for their art?

I would bet so, John! Still, it's hilarious, and I love that Fonzie character lurking at the corner.
