This is our local museum, located at the heart of downtown Norris City. Taken with an old Instamatic camera that was broken, but I figured out a way to get it to work - I removed the broken shutter mechanism so I could use it like a pinhole camera. Plus, I loaded 35mm film into an old 126 film cartridge. And not only that, the wind was blowing pretty briskly and the camera didn't have a tripod socket, so I had to actually tape it to a tripod to hold it steady for 10 seconds.

Back in the 1940's, this building used to be a movie theater. It was about a block away from a train station and two hotels - none of which are there anymore.
