@lisa v: this is from the sparks, kansas flea market. sparks has a population of seven, but twice a year it has a large flea market. people from all over bring crazy junk to sell.

It's a great piece of vintage advertizing, imagine bringing that out today..!
Do you develope your films yourself..?

@Observing: there's always interesting stuff at this flea market.
i develop my own film and then scan the negatives.

For some reason I find this a bit eerie/creepy since the shapes in back of the sign are so ambiguous and the figure seems to be looking back at them. Nicely done.

@daina: thanks daina. i agree about the creepy part.
@Rags: thanks rags
@Tilala: thank you tilala

Red Top...? Seems like something from the 50's perhaps. I find it creepy too where there is a 'opening' at her left calf. Anyhow, a wonderful shot.

Once again great work with the Holga, a surreal and spooky vision

Great sign --with added drama of the unknown by separating it from it's flea market origins.
