Mural Advertising Examples on George Sellios' Franklin & South Manchester (HO) model railroad layout 

Another beautiful virtual visit, Bret!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I wish I could do something like this ... I'm in a apartment and my wife wont let me take over the livingroom ... LOL 🤣

The guy painted on the wall at 1:31 sure looks like Curly Howard.

It's generally thought that this layout is set in 1930. An article in Model Railroader about it many eyars ago had a picture of the street. On the street was a 1934 Mercedes Benz 540K roadster (I have that same model) painted to look like it was rusty. Also, there was an open-top double deck solid tire London bus from about 1914. Stuff like that ruins the credibilty of the layout. It also shows a lack of proper road vehicles of that era that are available in HO scale like Ford Model Ts, Plymouths, Studebakers, Nashes and so forth. 2 and 4 door sedans. Cars that people actually drove back then.
