You are invited to stay and browse through my photostream. Here's a quick index to my Flickr site:
Automobile Photographs: This is a very large collection of images whose primary, but not exclusive, focus is on American automotive classics. Images are organized by decade, by manufacturer, and by topics (such as convertibles, station wagons, muscle cars, etc.)
Central Illinois (except Springfield): Central Illinois (except Springfield): Photos relating to the middle section of the "Land of Lincoln" (except for the Capital City of Springfield) may be found in this collection. Every city and town I've photographed is contained within its own set, and rural (as in "counrtyside") photographs are grouped by county.
Springfield, Illinois: All of my photographs of Springfield and the Abraham Lincoln Sites are in this collection. For the City of Springfield, there are separate sets for the Capitol Complex, Downtown (including the Old State Capitol), Neighborhoods, Parks, Illinois State Fairgrounds (and past State Fairs), and more. Photographs of Lincoln sites include the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum, Lincoln Home National Historic Site, Lincoln Tomb, and so on. Also in the Lincoln "All About Abe" (Set) are a few Lincoln sites not located in Springfield.
The Illinois State Fair: My collection of photographs of the Illinois State Fair. The fair offers something for everyone. Grab a corn dog and lemon shake-up, and come take a look!
Beyond Central Illinois: Other locales in the United States and Canada including New York, Chicago, San Francisco and Seattle.
In addition to my location-based sets, here are links to some "topical" collections and sets I've put together:
Barbers & Barber Shops: Traditional barbers and barber shops are on the endangered species list. But there are still plenty to be found if you go looking for them.
Almost Everything Else. Check It Out!!!: Included topics range from man's first walk on the moon to small town schools and churches, and from Soft-Coated Wheaten Terriers (our favorite breed) to things that are abandoned, neglected, weathered, or rusty.

The first two photos in this series show the car prior to restoration while for sale on the lot of Country Classic Cars in Staunton, Illinois. Even before the restoration, this car turned heads.

1929 Marquette Model 34 4-Passenger Sport Roadster (4 of 9)
Image by myoldpostcards
The Marquette was launched by the Buick Division of General Motors as a sister make in the 1930 model year. In the GM food chain, the Marquette ranked just below Buick and just above Oldsmobile. The Marquette arrived in dealer showrooms on June 1, 1929, and many of the early cars - including the one shown in this photograph - were registered as 1929 models. Six models of the Series 30 (Phaeton, Sport Roadster, Coupe, Business Coupe, 2-Door Sedan, and Four-Door Sedan) were built by Buick during the brief (1929-31) run of the Marquette brand.
Photographed at the McLean County Antique Auto Club Show held on the grounds of the David Davis Mansion in Bloomington, Illinois on August 7, 2010.
