I was part of a group that rented a cabin in Caseville earlier this month (a cute coastal town located in Michigan’s thumb).
The. Place. Was. AMAZING.
Picture, in your mind a cabin. It is filled with all of the greatest, newest gadgets–circa 1962. A favorite such artifact (after the built in counter blender) was the panic button panel in the master bedroom. For the shot above, I knew I wanted a picture of myself pushing the button, but I didn’t want to actually push it–so, I decided on a long exposure shot, to get a ghostly look.
It made for a fun experiment.
The new ACME Bedroom comes with its own key ignition.
Here is the full panel (the lighting was not the best). I covered the address and phone number. I did a bit of research and I don’t think this place (or guy) is in business any longer.
You light up my life, Bedroom Panel.

Atomic logos are the new black.
Close up of the installer/designer/whatever’s logo. I love this and how retro it is, I almost want to have a similar logo made with my initials. Almost.
These photos may not be anything special, but the subject was too interesting not to share.
Tomorrow: more photos!
