Slide of the Week: October 26th, 2007

Frankenstein, Pasadena, CA 1965

Frankenstein, Pasadena, CA 1965

Can you believe those beautiful honey blond closet doors? They have no doorknobs!

This slide was clearly marked “Pasadena, 1965.” OK fine. But what I want to know is where in Pasadena in 1965 do you find Goth shoes? They don’t have Goth shops in Pasadena in 1965. Finally I figured it out. Frankenstein had to go to one of those shops that you go to if you have one leg longer than the other!

Wishing you the best Trick-or-Treating EVER!!!!
Happy Halloween!

    Charles, yes, the honey blonde closet doors are exquisite, but what about that lamp!? And that green, what is it, naugahyde, chair, the perfect pinch pleat drapes, and the light as a feather aluminum screen door, and the hand me down early american end table? In a hurry to get out the door today? Guess you had to get going on one of your fabulous tours, which I hope to go on one day soon!

    Frankenstein is a dead ringer for a young Herman Munster. Hot!

    Personally, I’m having trouble noticing the furniture since I can’t get past the fact that in spite of the heavy green makeup there appears to be a very handsome young man therein.
