Graffiti And Grand Old Buildings
Graffiti And Grand Old Buildings
A subtle, jumbled beauty of a street scene - complete with graffiti and neon signs. There are many soft tones and colors to be found in the city. This would look good in anyone's living room, den, or office.

These are only a few of the nostalgic gumball machines I've encountered on my daily walks, bringing me back to a childhood time and feeling that I cannot forget. They are beautiful in their muted, yet bright colors, and the old finish of the metal and glass containers. What prize awaits the lucky few?
I walked along familiar streets and glimpsed a vision from my childhood; a beautiful old vintage gumball machine, just visible among the shadows of the old candy store. Never mind the convenience stores, the newspaper stands, the lotto places; I have, in my mind, an image that can never be replaced.

These three fire-engine red gumball machines, though hosting modern-day bubble gum, candies, and treats (hosted by an adorable puppy face smiling up at you!), cannot fail to bring back fond childhood memories of bubble gum machines, comic books, and Nancy Drew mystery novels, all highlights of growing up, for me, at least.
