Gone but not forgotten

Another tribute to Honest Ed's in Toronto. The PiPs at upper left show three more views of the store.

Ed's has now been replaced by a Big Bland Box. It's as if there's a conspiracy to banish colour from Toronto.

Eugène Atget would have loved this place.

The Buy & Sell #3

The Buy & Sell was a junk shop on St. Clair Avenue West in Toronto. I have posted two photos of its front window before (shown in the PiPs at top left), but have never named the store. It was a remarkable place, crammed full of items of every type. A review of it I once read recommended taking a pair of gloves and a hard hat when you visited. The B & S also provided some great deals to compensate for problems like having to climb over the stock. Now I find that it closed after I left Toronto, and these three photographs are my tribute to it.

Sadly, Santa Rosa's iconic costume rental store had to close after forty years. Apparently, there are just not enough goths and steam punks around here. There go my favorite shop windows.

No I did not add saturation to this ... it was a bright day, and it's a colorful street.

*I actually very much dislike oversaturated photos as much as they seem to be in fashion. Maybe I should start a group for "realistic color" images ... ;-)
