including perhaps a low budget Sci-Fi film

and I've always got a close eye out for them

This red cross was the logo of the 6th Corps 1st Division of the Union army during the Civil War

Wonderful old paint

all pointing up toward the peak of the frame--and altogether evincing a sort of vernacular holy trinity

Arizona Welcomes You, Iconic and Rather Poignant c. 1940s Snapshot coral specimen including perhaps a low budgetAn iconic feeling snapshot of an iconic feeling late 1930s early 1940s "Arizona Welcomes You" sign, which certainly seems to beg the question now of who the "you" is. One occasionally sees an old snapshot of a tourist or two posing next to this very sign or one similar to it, but void of people and tightly framed this snapshot feels to me particularly poignant in this moment. 3 1 2" x 2 1 2"and in excellent condition.
