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.
"Ted’s Plaza Diner as it started out in New Jersey. The Erie Lackawanna Railroad Company factory in the background notable in that many of its staff often used the diner. "
New Jersey landmark relocated to Bude, 2012

Remember the days when all you could afford was coffee or small cokes with an order of toast or an order of fries to split with someone special.

"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".

Billy Goat Inn and owner Billy Sianis (Chicago ~1945)
The Billy Goat Curse started with the 1945 World Series at Wrigley Field when officials kicked Sianis and his goat out of the stadium, prompting Billy to place a curse on the Cubs.
