Mimi's Vintage Diner at Bude, UK

"Built by the Mountain View Diner Company in 1950, Mimi’s lives in Cornwall, UK. It’s a testament to the allure of these original diners that someone would ship it across the Atlantic and restore it to its former glory." Unfortunately Mimi's has now closed.

"In the late 1960's the Photorealism movement abandoned the observation of their surroundings and painted exact replications of photo images. This can be seen in the work of Richard Estes considered to be the leading artist in the Photorealism movement. The use of photography in painting is still a vital part of an artists toolbox".
